At an event earlier this year I was able to chat with individuals who are working closely with the Microsoft teams to produce a strategy around the company’s Hybrid Cloud offerings. Despite working on ways to bridge the gap between on-premises and Azure, the company has faced internal struggles as to which strategy is best. Microsoft first introduced the Azure Pack which provided a synching conduit between the on-premises and in-cloud realities. Last year, the company announced it would replace Azure Pack with Azure Stack. And, this is the crux of the struggle.
