Service Overview:
Multi-Cloud: Involves using services from more than one cloud provider (e.g., AWS, Azure, Google Cloud), providing redundancy and avoiding vendor lock-in.
Hybrid Cloud: Combines private (on-premises) infrastructure with public cloud resources to enable data and application movement between the two, allowing businesses to meet unique data residency, compliance, or performance requirements.
Benefits:
Flexibility: Enables the use of best-in-class services from multiple cloud providers.
Cost Optimization: Businesses can reduce costs by leveraging price differences across platforms.
Resilience: Redundancy across clouds increases fault tolerance and minimizes downtime.
Data Security and Compliance: Enhanced control over sensitive data while leveraging cloud scalability.
Performance Optimization: Balances workloads across various environments for efficient performance and reduced latency.
