This document provides examples of hybrid cloud architectures and scenarios. It describes using a hybrid cloud approach for encrypted backups, replication between two sites, orchestrated recovery in the event of an outage, and remote access through a VPN. Specific solutions mentioned include System Center, Hyper-V, StorSimple, and Azure. The document also discusses migration strategies for different types of servers and applications to a hybrid cloud model.
