Cloud adoption changes the network whether the network plan changes or not.
Applications may span several environments. Users may connect from offices, homes, field locations, and mobile devices. Traffic that once passed through a central data center may now move directly to cloud services. Existing routing, inspection, monitoring, and recovery models may no longer fit.
A successful hybrid architecture does more than create connectivity. It defines how traffic should flow, where controls should be applied, how failures will be handled, and how operations teams will maintain visibility across organizational and provider boundaries.
Cloud and Hybrid Connectivity
Connectivity decisions align application flows, policy, resilience, and operations.
