Will Multi-cloud Strategy Be a Preferred Option?

Multi-cloud Strategy

What Is a Multi-cloud Strategy and How Is It Different from Other Cloud Strategies?

Long gone are the days of storing data on expensive data centers. Organizations are now rightfully leveraging the features offered by cloud computing. However, for organizations that use cloud services across numerous geographies, associating with just one cloud service provider to meet their needs is a struggle. This is where organizations opt to utilize a multi-cloud strategy.

Most enterprise adopters of public cloud services use multiple providers. This is known as multi-cloud computing, a subset of the broader term hybrid cloud computing. In a recent Gartner survey of public cloud users, 81% of respondents said they were working with two or more providers. According to Michael Warrilow, VP Analyst, Gartner, the dominance of mega vendors in the public cloud services market is the main reason enterprise buyers choose multiple cloud providers.


Multi-Cloud vs. Single Cloud

According to Forbes, a typical organization would ideally use six cloud computing services. There is a general notion that a single cloud is a better and more effortless strategy to orchestrate. It is only when organizations add multiple clouds to their existing infrastructure in a haphazard manner that it can lead to chaos and trouble in maintenance.


Multi-Cloud vs. Hybrid Cloud

A hybrid cloud infrastructure blends two or more different cloud models, whereas a multi-cloud blends other clouds of the same kind. Since all cloud providers don’t have the same offerings, organizations must adopt a multi-cloud strategy to deliver best-in-class IT services.

Multi-cloud infrastructure enables businesses to maintain a hybrid cloud environment that provides security and cost benefits at the same time. The most secure workloads are kept in the private cloud, while typical corporate data and apps are run on less expensive public cloud networks.


What Is the Need for a Multi-cloud Strategy?

With several major cloud platforms like AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform, organizations can utilize the advantages of each platform for their own functioning using a multi-cloud architecture. This helps organizations be independent of just one cloud service provider. 

According to Rightscale’s 2016 State of the Cloud Report, companies use an average of 3.6 different public clouds. It’s not always on purpose. In some organizations, multi-cloud happens by accident. The marketing team decides to use AWS while the HR department, operating in its silo, deploys Azure. And there you have it: a multi-cloud environment.

There are several other benefits that an organization can utilize. Some of the most common pros of multi-cloud platforms are:
  • Reduced risk of vendor lock-in and single-vendor dependency
  • Availability of the latest services that suit your business needs
  • Business continuity and disaster recovery
  • Workload optimization
  • Reduction in time-to-market
  • Agility in addressing the latest business needs


Challenges of Multi-cloud Approach

Even though a multi-cloud approach is significantly advantageous, there are still certain downsides that organizations face while implementing their multi-cloud strategy.

Exploring the top four challenges of the multi-cloud approach:


Management Complexity

With multiple cloud environments, management tasks become more complex. The core issue is the diversity of cloud vendors. Every public cloud vendor has its own portal, APIs, and unique processes for managing their environment.


Talent Scarcity

One of the significant challenges organizations face while deploying their multi-cloud strategy is the lack of resources with the mastery of managing specific cloud platforms. With supply being scarce, this would mean battling the tight labor market along with rapidly changing technologies. Because of this, organizations will have to rely on service providers who know how to work with multiple cloud systems to fill in the gaps.


Cost Control

Among other benefits, multi-cloud provides data administrators the ability to quickly deploy applications in the cloud environment of their choice. Unfortunately, the billing process can sometimes become troublesome when organizations implement a multi-cloud strategy.


Governance, Compliance and Security Concerns

Even though cloud service providers offer robust security architecture and protocols, it is eventually the organization’s responsibility to secure their data in all their cloud and on-premise environments,


What Is the Future of Multi-cloud Infrastructure?

All cloud services are prone to some failure at any given point and even though this statement is technically correct, there has been tremendous development in cloud computing that caters to such issues. Therefore, for organizations that wish to grow exponentially with the least possible hurdles, the best available option is implementing a multi-cloud strategy.

When an organization uses a multi-cloud strategy, it empowers them to distribute their workloads across multiple cloud environments while mitigating any risk associated with individual cloud environments. This alone justifies the widespread growth and adoption of multi-cloud architecture solutions in the future.

Some points that define the multi-cloud platform as the future of an organization are:
  • Optimized ROI
  • Superior Security
  • Low Latency
  • Autonomy
  • Less Prone to Disaster


Conclusion

The use of a multi-cloud strategy alone now provides organizations with a significant competitive advantage. There are new tools that also help you monitor usage, performance, and costs across a multi-cloud environment. This also helps bring intelligence and automation to your multi-cloud approach. This enables your organization to efficiently and cost-effectively leverage multiple cloud infrastructures without having to change applications or operating systems.

FAQ


Q1: What Is the Difference Between Multi-cloud and Hybrid Cloud?

Both multi-cloud and hybrid clouds are deployment models wherein you use more than one cloud. The core difference is that a hybrid cloud blends two or more different types of clouds, while a multi-cloud blends other clouds of the same kind.


Q2: What Is the Purpose of Multi-cloud?

A multi-cloud strategy allows stakeholders to pick and choose specific cloud solutions that would work best for their organization. When diverse business needs arise, organizations can allocate resources to different cloud providers, maximize those resources, and only pay for what they use.


Q3: What Is the Most Important Aspect of Deploying a Multi-cloud Strategy?

By effectively deploying a multi-cloud strategy, there are multi-cloud access layers that are deployed. This is a crucial layer of the multi-cloud network because it ensures that the cloud is securely accessible by all business components.

What Is Cloud-Native and Why Does it Matter for CI

Article | July 14, 2022

Continuous intelligence (CI) relies on the real-time analysis of streaming data to produce actionable insights in milliseconds to seconds. Such capabilities have applications throughout a business. In today’s dynamic marketplace, new CI applications that use data from various sources at any given time might be needed on very short notice.The challenge is how to have the flexibility to rapidly develop and deploy new CI applications to meet fast-changing business requirements. A common approach employed today is to use a dynamic architecture that delivers access to data, processing power, and analytics capabilities on demand. In the future, solutions also will likely incorporate artificial intelligence applications to complement the benefits of traditional analytics. Increasingly, cloud-native is the architecture of choice to build and deploy AI-embedded CI applications. A cloud-native approach offers benefits to both the business and developers. Cloud-native applications or services are loosely coupled with explicitly described dependencies.

Why Microsoft Should Spinoff Its Cloud Business

Article | February 4, 2022

Microsoft currently features old-school solutions that are growing relatively slowly (Office and Windows) and new cloud solutions that are growing tremendously (Dynamics 365 and Azure). If the company stays in its current form, Microsoft stock will keep steadily advancing. But because the company’s total top and bottom lines are never going to increase much more than 30% or 35% per year, the shares are never going to deliver truly huge returns. But that would change if the company was to spin off its rapidly growing cloud businesses. In such a scenario, the current owners of Microsoft stock would receive shares in a cutting edge cloud services company (let’s call it Azure), and shares in a company focused on providing old, mostly PC-based software to businesses and consumers.

With the huge amounts of data in all fields, a future in the cloud is imperative to help deal with this explosion of data, especially in the field of intelligence technology. This is the reason why the US Central Intelligence Agency is updating its cloud technology. The agency has recently released a draft request for proposal for its Commercial Cloud Enterprise contract.The C2E tens of billions contract will be a multi-award commercial cloud computing contract with a five-year base period and two five-year options for a period of performance of up to 15 years, according to nextgov.com.In a March 2019 presentation by the Directorate of Digital Innovation, a division of the CIA, the department outlined its vision for C2E. It would be broad and include infrastructure, platform and software cloud services supporting a broad range of users, with a variety of security clearances and a worldwide presence, as reported by techcrunch.com. The principal C2E Program objective is to acquire cloud computing services directly from commercial cloud service providers with established records for innovation and operational excellence in cloud service delivery for a large customer base,the department stated in the presentation.Apparently, the agency prefers to avoid all the attention that the Pentagon’s JEDI cloud procurement process got, and quietly go about its business.

AWS tags US$235 million to expand its cloud infrastructure in Latin America

Article | February 10, 2020

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is raising its stake on cloud computing infrastructure in Latin America. Proof of this is that the IT company will use R$1 billion (around US$235 million) to expand its data center in Sao Paulo. These millions will be used for its Data Processing Center located in that part of Brazil. In addition, a portion of these US$235 million will also be used to increase the services it offers to both public and private parties.The move gives reason to suggest that AWS is upping the ante in the future of startups and tech in the region that rely on cloud services to develop their own products.It launched its cloud center in Brazil in 2011 but it’ll be getting some beefing up thanks to these funds. Moreover, AWS has two Edge networks in São Paulo and two in Rio de Janeiro. As well as one in each of the following cities: Bogotá (Colombia), Buenos Aires (Argentina), and Santiago (Chile).The objective of all of this is to be the region’s prime provider of cloud infrastructure and beat out its competition AKA, Google Cloud Platform and Microsoft’s Azure.
