Local has a leg over global. Enterprises are already aware of this. This is perhaps better understood in the natural preference to install applications on the mobile device over accessing them remotely. The difference between local and global is two-fold and both are equally important: One, the advantage of latency that local provides is irreplaceable; two, the data is safer in a local environment. When applied to deploying Robotic Process Automation (RPA), this analogy brings home an irrefutable truth—RPA in a hybrid cloud environment will give enterprises an edge they could not otherwise have. The combination of RPA and hybrid cloud reduces latency and improves security. Gaining insights into the idea of RPA in hybrid cloud is going to become critical in the shadow of COVID-19. This is because enterprises are increasing the RPA and hybrid cloud components in their strategy to respond to the COVID-19 crisis.
