FlexPod and the future of Private Cloud

Why CIOs are reconsidering Cloud Repatriation

As organisations reach new levels of cloud maturity, many CIOs are rethinking their initial ‘all-in’ approach to public cloud. Increasingly, they’re shifting towards hybrid models—bringing select workloads back to private or on-premise environments.

What’s driving this trend?

Interactive’s latest whitepaper highlights key reasons behind the rise of cloud repatriation:

• Unpredictable public cloud costs: Expected savings often fail to materialise.
• Performance and availability concerns: Certain workloads deliver better results when hosted privately.
• Regulatory pressures and data sovereignty: Greater control over data is now a business necessity.
