Multicloud embodies a variety of cloud types (public, private and on-premises) from a variety of cloud providers (e.g., Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform and Microsoft® Azure®) and/or SaaS providers (e.g., Salesforce, SAP, Oracle) in the same environment. While most companies would agree that a multicloud approach is the future, not many realize that multicloud is already their present.
While multicloud is on the rise, data centers are increasingly falling out of favor. According to the Multicloud Annual Research Report 2022 by WDC Technology, 56% of technology decision makers surveyed no longer envision plans of owning a data center in five years. The cloud is well established, and companies are investing in public or private cloud containers, serverless and edge computing technologies.
