The basics of Multi-Cloud
The journey started from the cloud to arriving on the multi-cloud. Nowadays, every IT department in an organization is heading towards the multi-cloud era. Let's first get our heads clear,
|
- What is multi-cloud?
- What is a hybrid cloud?
|
As we are hearing, these two terms are sometimes interchangeable.
|
|
So the multi-cloud is where an organization uses cloud services from two or more cloud providers, from the Oracle Cloud, AWS, Azure, Google Cloud,
|
|
A hybrid cloud is where the organization uses on-premises services referred to as a "private cloud" and few from any of the cloud providers—a "public cloud."
|
Now the first question that comes to mind is, "Why multi-cloud?" A few areas to think of
|
- Vendor lock-in
- Data centre availability – this is also linked to the compliance requirement that you need to have an in-country data centre.
- Utilize the best services from the cloud vendor, who specializes in certain services.
- low latency requirements for certain applications, and that vendor doesn’t have a data centre in that region.
- Price optimization
- By accident, they opted for multi-cloud (within organizations, the different departments opted for different cloud vendors).
- Resilience (I need to have a backup site with other cloud providers)
