Balancing the strengths of public and private cloud environments while maintaining control and customization can be complex. Many organizations are seeking ways to blend the scalability of Azure with the flexibility and openness of private cloud solutions.

This session provides a guide to building a hybrid cloud that connects the capabilities of Azure with a private cloud utilizing Proxmox, pfSense, and TrueNAS.

- Seamless Network Connectivity - First, learn how to establish network connections between Azure and your private cloud.

- Unified Data Management - Then discover techniques for integrating and managing data across your hybrid cloud using TrueNAS and Azure.

- Hybrid Compute Optimization - Finally, explore how to distribute and optimize compute resources between Azure and your private cloud with Proxmox and TrueNAS.

Attendees will leave this session with the skills to design and manage a hybrid cloud environment that harnesses the strengths of both Azure and open-source software. They will learn to connect networks, integrate data systems, and optimize compute resources.
