Which deployment model is commonly used to describe a non-cloud data center bridged directly to a cloud provider?

Answer options

• A. Hosted Cloud
• B. Hybrid Cloud
• C. Community Cloud
• D. Private Cloud
• E. Public Cloud

Correct answer: B

Explanation

The correct answer is B, Hybrid Cloud, as it specifically refers to the combination of on-premises infrastructure with cloud services.
