Hybrid cloud
Definition
The cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more distinct cloud infrastructures (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities, but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load balancing between clouds). The COV hybrid cloud will consist of at least one private cloud, more than one public (utility) cloud, more than one community (gov/FedRAMP) cloud, and integration between these cloud hosting services.
