Summary Hybrid cloud technology is becoming increasingly popular as it merges private and public clouds to bring the best of two worlds together. However, due to the heterogeneous cloud installation, facilitating a hybrid cloud setup is not simple. Despite some commercial solutions being available to build a hybrid cloud, an open‐source implementation is still unavailable. In this paper, we try to bridge the gap by providing an open‐source implementation using the power of Apache Mesos. We build a hybrid cloud on top of multiple cloud platforms, private and public. Through comprehensive experimental results, we show that our solution is able to ensure resource bursting by leveraging the power of the public cloud.
