Cloud Strategies

Organizations choose multi-cloud or hybrid cloud based on control, flexibility, and cost objectives. Each approach has unique strengths.

Multi-Cloud

Using two or more cloud providers. Helps avoid vendor lock-in and optimize workloads across ecosystems.

Hybrid Cloud

Combines on-premises infrastructure with public cloud. Ideal for workloads requiring compliance, data residency, or gradual migration.

Which is best?

Multi-cloud offers flexibility, while hybrid provides control. Many enterprises eventually use a mix of both.
