Overview
Enterprises in the cloud have a lot going for them: increased agility, adaptability, flexibility, and reliability—which makes staying ahead of the curve a lot easier. Combining on-premise infrastructure with cloud services can breathe new life into existing processes and increase the number of tools and technologies at your disposal.
Sounds great, right? It is—but first, you need to consider your choice of cloud provider and operating system. Which ones would provide the best foundation on which to build your hybrid cloud environment, while still allowing you the flexibility to adopt the services and technologies you want?
Linux and Google Cloud Platform are a strong combination with which to move your enterprise to the cloud and into the future. Let’s take a look at each one before learning what makes them stand out as a team.
