Exposing on-premises data sources to cloud-based applications

This scenario describes a deployment where on-premises data sources are exposed for secure access by cloud-based applications. For this deployment, a Hybrid Data Pipeline server is installed in the cloud, and the On-Premises Connector is used to perform secure connections through the firewall to the backend data store. The cloud-based application is located in a separate cloud but connects with Hybrid Data Pipeline through an API such as OData, ODBC, or JDBC.

This deployment could be suitable for an independent software vendor who wants to embed Hybrid Data Pipeline services in the cloud to give the cloud application users access to their data that resides in the data center or other on-premises systems.
