A distributed cloud solution allocates public cloud services to different physical locations to optimize for performance and compliance and is an excellent solution for businesses with specific geographical requirements.
Services can be distributed across on-premises locations and multiple third-party data centers. The management and maintenance of the distributed cloud remain the responsibility of the original public cloud provider.
Because infrastructure is physically closer to the client, distributed computing helps resolve latency issues and mitigates the risk of total server failure. In the future, distributed cloud solutions are expected to develop to look more like hybrid cloud solutions in private settings with more reliable networks, easier compliance to regulations, and an increased number of locations.
