This IDC white paper outlines two commonly seen hybrid cloud use cases for enterprises and dives deep on:

· Key considerations and challenges in Datacenter Extension and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure in the cloud
· Challenges around Hybrid Cloud implementation
· Accelerating the hybrid cloud journey with VMware Cloud on AWS in partnership with Intel
