There are several reasons why enterprises decide to host their IT solutions in a multi-cloud environment. The most important factors that make multi-cloud the right choice are:
Ability to store data of particular services in different, clearly defined locations in order to adhere to the local legal regulations.
Geographical distribution of the services, which allows you to optimize performance by reducing the impact of the latencies and mitigates the risk of service unavailability in the event of disaster.
Independence from a specific service provider (no vendor lock-in)
Finally, the multi-cloud strategy may bring significant cost savings concerning the IT environment as it allows you to combine the services based on the best pricing conditions offered by different providers.
