“Hybrid IT—which means the weird ‘some of it’s here and some of it’s not’ state of infrastructure—isn’t something systems administrators ever asked for—it’s the side effect of other technologies like cloud and Software as a Service (SaaS),” Hubbard said. “It’s become more than a buzzword—it’s a burdensome reality because, despite the apparent business benefits, it’s one more headache for operations folks who have to keep businesses running. I’m excited to share some core techniques to help attendees gain deep visibility into critical network paths regardless of their location: on-premises, off premises, or in a hybrid IT environment.”

The importance of this topic is evidenced in the recent SolarWinds Hybrid IT Report 2017: Portrait of a Hybrid IT Organization. Overall, the report found that organizations in North America are moving further into the cloud, with 95 percent reporting they have migrated critical applications and infrastructure over the past year. However, while nearly 60 percent said they have experienced the expected benefits of the cloud, hybrid IT is increasing the complexity of IT roles, and introducing challenges such as a lack of visibility between on-premises and cloud infrastructure, as well as the need to develop new skillsets to keep pace with changing environments.

SolarWinds also recently announced its latest capabilities for end-to-end hybrid IT management made possible through key updates to its modular and scalable SolarWinds^® Orion^® platform and related products, including SolarWinds Server & Application Monitor, SolarWinds Network Performance Monitor, SolarWinds Database Performance Analyzer, and the all-new SolarWinds PerfStack^™dashboard. SolarWinds enables complete cloud visibility along with deep on-premises monitoring to help IT professionals monitor, troubleshoot, and improve hybrid IT performance with a simplicity like never before.
