What problem does it solve? Designing infrastructure that spans public clouds, private clouds, and edge environments requires balancing workload placement, connectivity, compliance, and cost across heterogeneous platforms, which is difficult to reason about without structured guidance. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Workload Placement & Optimization: Analyzes data gravity, latency, compliance, and cost to decide where workloads should run across AWS, Azure, GCP, OpenStack, and VMware. - Hybrid Connectivity & Security: Plans Direct Connect, ExpressRoute, VPN, zero-trust networking, and identity federation across environments. - Migration, DR & FinOps: Produces migration strategies, multi-site disaster recovery plans, and multi-cloud cost optimization models. - Use Case: A financial services company needs an architecture spanning on-premises OpenStack and AWS with HIPAA compliance; the skill produces a placement strategy, connectivity plan, and DR design. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to design a hybrid cloud architecture for your workload, including workload placement, connectivity, security, and disaster recovery across your chosen platforms.
