These challenges carry significant potential of hampering the adoption rate of hybrid cloud by numerous SMBs across a wide range of verticals.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The EMC report noted that hybrid cloud issues are often operational. \u00a0It&#8217;s one thing to architect and then build the hybrid cloud. \u00a0But once built, it needs to be maintained, and that often involves tracking service levels across many different service providers. \u00a0Getting all the apps from a distributed environment working together smoothly and consistently is a day-to-day management task.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div class=\"lightsocial_container\"><div class=\"lightsocial_element\"><a class=\"lightsocial_a\"
