Sun Technologies' Digital Transformation Services

 Organizations are rapidly moving towards digital by implementing and deploying emerging technologies with cloud services to reduce the cost and complexity of their operations involved in maintaining their infrastructure by constantly accelerating innovations.

Here is new-age services called Multi-Cloud in that world of IT, which offers a wide range of benefits for organizations with flexibility, availability, and options in choosing and switching between vendors. But also, it’s evident that an ineffective multi-cloud environment can push organizations at risk of data privacy and protection.

In this blog, we will briefly discuss a few top benefits and challenges with Multi-Cloud services, with the definition of Multi-Cloud.

 

What is Multi-Cloud?

By definition, multi-cloud is a technology that offers organization the ability to provide and use multiple cloud services concurrently or in succession, with each service on a different platform in terms of virtualization, private cloud and public clouds.

Many Organizations have either adopted or are thinking about moving entirely to a multi-cloud environment for their technology infrastructure which can help them to enhance several types of multi-cloud options: hybrid cloud (public and private clouds) and multi-site clouds where a single organization has both on premises infrastructure and hosted applications across multiple sites.

Below are few benefits organizations achieve by adopting Multi-Cloud in there IT infrastructure.

 

Achieve Highest Availability

Any organizations need its applications to be up and running without any interruption, and a lack of latency with the highest availability is required for user satisfaction. In Multi-Cloud, the organizations can deploy their applications in the closet cloud server at the end-user region. This will ensure the application's data is traveled minimum nodes to reach the end-user, and also, as the application is running on different servers, they won't be any interruption even if one cloud server goes down, which result's the highest availability and low latency.

No Single Point of Failures

It has shown that most organizations earlier faced a Single Point of Failure of the application hosted on a cloud server. But, in a Multi-Cloud infrastructure, the applications are deployed on more than one server, so downtime of a single server may not affect entire application availability and performance.

Organizations relying on Multi-Cloud can also lower the risk of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks by ensuring that a business always has resources and data storage available and by avoiding mission-critical applications offline.

Customized Cloud Service Provider

Every organization has its unique requirements depending on the business, but cloud service vendors typically offer generalized solutions, which may compromise in few valuable elements. On the other hand, no cloud service provider offers a one-solution-fits-all for every business needs.

Multi-Cloud gives the free hands for organizations to choose and pick different cloud service platforms, servers, and locations, by this, the organization can make a customized and robust solution by keeping their parameters like Location, scalability/flexibility, and compliance rules for their business needs.

Freedom from Vendor Lock-Ins

We have seen that most cloud service providers have different compliance rules and contract periods, which forces organizations to stop opting for new technologies and migrations into new trending platforms. But Multi-Cloud service provides straightforward benefits to the organizations by giving an entire choice in selecting or expanding the service with a new vendor when the current vendor is underperforming or new requirements arise which does not support the architecture of the cloud server.

By this, the organizations can save time and money involved in subscriptions by responding to the market changes quickly, which achieves success in digital transformation.
