This document discusses designing a hybrid cloud solution using Microsoft Azure, Cisco, Citrix NetScaler, and Veeam technologies. It provides an overview of these platforms and technologies, including Microsoft Azure and Azure Stack, Cisco Nexus 1000v network virtualization, Citrix NetScaler for load balancing and optimization, and Veeam's availability and disaster recovery platform. The document also discusses hybrid cloud design and using Veeam to provide disaster recovery to Microsoft Azure.

28. Cloud priorities:
top of mind!
• The Veeam 2017 Veeam

confirms this! If
you didn’t attend
Jason Buffington’s
session –
I recommend it for
replay
(All sessions can be
replayed by
attendees).

(optional)
• Quickly restore Windows and Linux-based VMs, physical servers or endpoints
to Azure to minimize business disruption
• Execute planned workload migrations from on site to the cloud to reduce on-
site resource constraints
• Easily create an Azure-based test environment for testing backup reliability,
as well as patches and critical updates to mitigate risks associated with
application deployment
