Most of us have played "pretend" in our childhood, usually by dressing up as our favorite hero or fictional character. Of course, this behavior is harmless and can actually help with proper child development. However, some pretending can be very dangerous - like when a managed services provider pretends to be a real cloud solutions provider in markets like San Antonio, Austin, Dallas or Houston.
Most of us either had or knew someone that drove an old jalopy, at some point in our lives.
Usually the reason for allowing a car to deteriorate is due to a lack of funds or just the result of an extremely lazy maintenance routine.
However, why would a successful business allow their IT support agreement to become a Jalopy and how could they tell?
Most business owners that I have met in San Antonio and Austin seem pretty accepting of the cloud-computing concept.
However, I have run into a few rare individuals that have been vehemently against anything to do with the cloud.
After a few of these incidents, I am starting to think there might be a common thread. Could misplaced paranoia be fueling these skeptics?
Normally the idea behind utilizing a hybrid approach is to combine the strength of two elements for a stronger outcome.
A good example that follows this model is the hybrid golf club sitting in my golf bag. This technology allows me to hit the ball further, provided my swing is in working order.
Now many IT consultants are starting to beat their drums to the tune of hybrid cloud computing, see why!
