Abstract

This paper explores three prominent hybrid cloud strategies—Cloud Bursting, Multi-Cloud, and Hybrid Multi-Cloud with Edge Computing—specifically in the context of enterprise fulfilment applications such as order data stores and inventory management systems. These strategies provide scalability, cost efficiency, and flexibility, addressing the performance and operational challenges of modern enterprises. The paper analyzes the benefits and challenges of each strategy in terms of scalability, cost efficiency, latency, and security. A comparative analysis reveals that Cloud Bursting is optimal for handling seasonal demand surges, multi-cloud offers high reliability for global operations, and Hybrid Multi-Cloud with Edge Computing provides superior performance for real-time, low-latency applications. The paper concludes by highlighting the need for further research on integration, security innovations, cost optimization, and advancements in edge computing to address the challenges in hybrid cloud strategies for enterprise applications.
