    Mystery Hybrid Cloud! What are its riddles and when do I need it actually?

    I’ve been in IT since 2001 and countless times I did notice that people are confused by all these “Cloud” “Buzzwords”. Therefore, in this brief article I want to give a short explanation what actually is a “Hybrid,- Multi Cloud Approach”?  In our new digital world, digitalization needs to be adapted in every company, regardless […]
