Some workloads don’t belong in the cloud workloads with stringent performance requirements (for example zero propagation delays) workloads with stringent availability requirements (for example % availability) workloads requiring specialty equipment (for example high performance computing) workloads requiring specialty equipment configurations (for example direct-attach storage)
