How you use cloud computing will be a major decision in your application strategy architecture and planning, and multicloud is becoming increasingly the popular choice among cloud architects for building high-end, cloud-centric, enterprise applications. If you’ve already decided on a multicloud strategy, you must decide what type of multicloud strategy is best for your application. That decision may not be as clear-cut as you might think.
Types of multicloud strategies
In general, multicloud is a strategy with which a single application is deployed using more than one cloud provider. For example, as shown in Figure 1, an application could be deployed to both Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), and take advantage of both sets of cloud services.
