Public cloud has become an integral part of modern operations, offering unparalleled scalability, flexibility, and efficiency. Public cloud services have gained popularity for their convenience but concerns regarding the visibility and control over cloud resources have emerged, particularly in regulated environments.
However, HPE GreenLake cloud is revolutionizing the cloud landscape by delivering cloud-like capabilities in a disconnected and sovereign cloud, while providing complete transparency regarding the hardware, software, and security-cleared support personnel involved.
The challenge of public cloud
Public cloud services, while beneficial, often lack transparency when it comes to the location of cloud resources. This lack of visibility raises concerns for organizations operating in regulated environments, where compliance with strict data security and sovereignty regulations is paramount. Knowing the exact location of data storage, processing, and the personnel involved becomes crucial for ensuring regulatory compliance and maintaining control over sensitive information.
