Cisco's InterCloud strategy aims to build a hybrid cloud by creating interconnects between private clouds, public clouds, and provider-hosted clouds. The strategy includes components like the InterCloud Fabric for provisioning hybrid clouds with policies, and the InterCloud Fabric Extender for extending private clouds to public clouds with secure Layer 2 connectivity. Cisco also seeks to build an ecosystem of cloud partners that have built their infrastructure with Cisco and offer hybrid-ready public clouds.

Conclusion
Cisco is wants to build an ecosystem of partners that have
build their cloud infrastructure with Cisco and working to build
ready to consume public cloud that are hybrid-ready.
We expect that Cisco will soon extend their interCloud
offering to include OpenStack based managed private cloud –
leveraging the recent acquisition of MetaCloud.
