Hybrid Search considerations
• Connect multiple farms to the same tenant
• Every user needs an Office 365 license
• Decide where you want to do People Search
• Advanced customizations are not possible (yet)
• Delve integration only through search
• Document previews for On-Premises content requires Office Web Apps exposed through a reverse proxy server

Hybrid Metadata / Taxonomy
• Currently in Preview for 2013 & 2016
• The missing link in the hybrid search story
• SharePoint Online becomes the master repository
• On-premises timer job will sync your metadata regularly
