A multi-tenant data center environment includes a dedicated domain having at least one dedicated server associated with a client and a cloud domain having at least one cloud server associated with the client. The cloud server may have a public interface to a public network and a private interface to a private network. In turn, a network device is coupled between the dedicated domain and the public network, and is further coupled to the cloud server via the private network. A controller of the data center may be used to determine presence of the cloud server, and configure the network device to allow certain traffic to pass directly to the dedicated domain, while preventing other traffic from this direct path, based on access controls of the network device. |

1. A system comprising:
a dedicated domain of a multi-tenant environment including at least one dedicated server associated with a client; a cloud domain of the multi-tenant environment, the cloud domain including at least one cloud server associated with the client and having a public interface to a public network and a private interface to a private network; a network device coupled between the dedicated domain and the public network, to create a hybrid connected network in which the at least one cloud server is coupled to the network device via the private interface of the at least one cloud server, the private network, and a physical interconnect, the private network to provide communications of cloud servers of multiple clients of the multi-tenant environment as an unmetered free network, the cloud domain and the dedicated domain co-located in the multi-tenant environment; and a hybrid controller coupled to the network device to automatically determine presence of the at least one cloud server and to disable the public interface of the at least one cloud server to prevent traffic from the at least one cloud server to be sent to the public network and to route the traffic to the network device, wherein the private interface of the at least one cloud server is connected with a pre-hybrid connection IP address and subnet mask of the at least one cloud server and a pre-hybrid connection default gateway of the private interface is replaced with an IP address of the network device, to enable the traffic to be routed to the network device, wherein the hybrid controller is to write an entry in the network device associated with the at least one cloud server, wherein the entry is to allow communications from the at least one cloud server destined for the at least one dedicated server to be routed directly from the at least one cloud server via the private interface, the private network, and the physical interconnect to the network device and thereafter to the at least one dedicated server without traversing the public network, and wherein the system is to allow a first communication from the at least one cloud server to be provided directly from the network device to the at least one dedicated server based on the entry, wherein the first communication is destined to the at least one dedicated server. |
