There is a growing connection between generative AI (GenAI) and hybrid cloud adoption and integration. In an article, IBM posits that GenAI can build a successful hybrid cloud strategy by meeting complex market demands. Moreover, hybrid cloud and adopting GenAI go hand-in-hand to promote sustainability objectives of enterprises.
In a recent interview with FutureCIO, Rodney Regalado, the country manager of Infrastructure Technology at IBM Singapore, discusses challenges in the deployment of GenAI in hybrid cloud environments and how to overcome them, its impact on industry-wide practices, and bridging the skills gap in terms of its deployment.
Not without a challenge
Regalado observes that organisations have accelerated the adoption of GenAI in a hybrid cloud environment, with around 66% of hybrid cloud adopters in Singapore already establishing policies to deploy GenAI.
However, some challenges and requirements remain, including the ability to control and manage the hybrid cloud environment, the need for a flexible and portable platform, and an increased agility with the ability to connect cloud and on-premises environments.
“When it comes to deploying generative AI within a hybrid cloud environment, enterprises are also concerned about the potential exposure of sensitive data,” Regalado says.
Around 41% of cloud leaders in Singapore are still concerned about cybersecurity and privacy, based on an IBM study.
