1. An apparatus comprising:
a processor configured to
identify storage attributes of a storage location of a private cloud,
embed a priority tag into a replication request to replicate data to a public cloud based on the identified storage attributes of the storage location of the private cloud; and
a network interface configured to transmit the tagged replication request from the private cloud to the public cloud based on a bandwidth assigned to the embedded priority tag.
