Explanation

A hybrid cloud combines on-premises (private) infrastructure with public cloud resources, allowing an organization to keep sensitive or regulated data locally while leveraging the scalability and cost efficiency of the public cloud for other workloads. This dual-location capability is the defining characteristic of the hybrid model. A public cloud (A) places all resources with a third-party provider. A private cloud (D) keeps everything on-premises or in a dedicated environment - there is no public cloud component. A community cloud (B) is shared among organizations with common interests (e.g., government agencies), not a mix of on-site and cloud.
