Aug 6 (Reuters) - CDW CDW.O beat Wall Street estimates for second-quarter results on Wednesday, helped by continued demand for IT solutions from its healthcare and government customers.

The increasing need for hybrid data centers by combining cloud and on-premise infrastructure, has created new growth opportunities for CDW.

CDW provides information technology solutions such as security, cloud, hybrid infrastructure to business, government, education and healthcare customers in the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada.

The company has worked with key technology brands such as Microsoft MSFT.O, Cisco CSCO.O and Apple AAPL.O to offer a wide variety of products and services.

"This quarter's results highlight the combined power of our balanced portfolio of customer end-markets and broad product and solutions suite, supported by the investments we've made in our business combined with our customer centric strategy," CEO Christine Leahy said.

CDW's public segment net sales grew 2% to $2.29 billion, primarily driven by an increase in sales to healthcare and government customers.

The company reported net sales of $5.98 billion for the second-quarter ended June 30, beating analysts' estimate of $5.51 billion, according to data compiled by LSEG.

On an adjusted basis, the company earned $2.60 per share, compared with estimates of $2.49.
