Cloud repatriation is the process of migrating applications, data, and workloads from a public cloud environment to on-premise infrastructure.
What Are the Benefits of Cloud Repatriation?
The benefits of cloud repatriation include:
- Cost savings. Many organizations initially embraced the cloud for its scalability and pay-as-you-go model. However, risings costs for cloud services are making it harder to justify their use over on-premise data centers.
- Performance and latency. The public cloud’s data transfer and processing delays can adversely affect applications that require low latency and high performance, while on-premise data centers may offer better performance.
- Data governance and compliance. Organizations in highly regulated industries or regions with strict data sovereignty laws may return to on-premise data centers for greater control over their data.
- Security concerns. Companies with stringent security requirements often find on-premise infrastructure better suited to meet their needs.
Improve Efficiency and Uptime During a Cloud Repatriation
If you are considering migrating workloads from the cloud to on-premise infrastructure, getting the most out of your existing facilities and maintaining uptime are critical.
Data Center Infrastructure Management (DCIM) software is an important solution to help your cloud repatriation project be a success.
DCIM software:
- Identifies underutilized resources for migrated workloads
- Drives energy efficiency by helping you avoid overcooling, track energy KPIs like Power Usage Effectiveness (PUE), and optimize your virtual environment
- Continuously monitors your critical infrastructure so you can identify potential issues and proactively resolve them before they lead to downtime
