A hybrid system is a combination or integration of two or more different technologies, methods, or components to create a new and improved system. This term can be used in various fields such as computing, transportation, energy production, and many others. In general, the goal of creating a hybrid system is to take advantage of the strengths of each component while minimizing their weaknesses, resulting in an overall better performance than any individual component alone. For example, in automobiles, a hybrid system combines a traditional internal combustion engine with an electric motor and battery pack to achieve greater fuel efficiency and reduced emissions. In computing, a hybrid system may combine the power of a mainframe computer with the flexibility of distributed systems to provide both high performance and scalability.
