👉 Permit computing, also known as cloud bursting or hybrid cloud computing, is a strategy that allows organizations to extend their on-premises infrastructure by leveraging public cloud services when demand exceeds the capacity of their local resources. Essentially, it involves temporarily moving workloads from an on-premises data center to a public cloud provider, such as AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud, to handle peak loads or seasonal spikes in demand. This approach enables businesses to scale their computing resources dynamically, optimizing costs and performance without the need for significant upfront investments in additional hardware. Permit computing ensures that critical applications and services remain available and performant, even during periods of high demand, while maintaining control over sensitive data and workloads on-premises.
