What is hybrid cloud platform?

Hybrid cloud platform is a set of integrated software tools that allows an enterprise administrator to essentially manage on-premise, private cloud, and public cloud services.  It makes a way to scale their computing resources with capabilities such as provisioning and manage VMs, auto-discovery, migration, and orchestration using a consistent set of tools, APIs, workflows across all the cloud platforms.
