Company maintains:
Runs private cloud using:
Organization creates an account on:
This provides access to scalable cloud services.
Connect on-premises network to cloud using:
Creates a private and encrypted tunnel.
Admins manage both environments using:
A company runs its ERP system on-premises but wants a public website and mobile app on cloud.
Company data center hosts:
Private IP range: 192.168.1.0/24
Create AWS account and deploy:
VPC network: 10.0.0.0/16
Configure Site-to-Site VPN between:
Creates encrypted tunnel.
On AWS EC2:
sudo apt update
sudo apt install nginx php -y
Configure app to connect to on-prem database IP.
Customers access website via public cloud
Internal staff access ERP locally
Both systems work together

Security of private cloud
Scalability of public cloud
Flexibility and cost efficiency
It is ideal for businesses that want cloud benefits without moving all data to the public cloud.
