Why choose a multi-cloud strategy

Written by power2Cloud | 30/05/23

The use of multi-cloud systems within organizations is becoming increasingly popular, as it allows saving and managing a large amount of data securely while making it accessible to the entire team.

By using a cloud platform, you can easily coordinateyour work and the information you need instantly, whether from your desktop device or from your phone with your Internet connection.

 

The Cloud 

When we talk about Cloud services, we mean that set of IT infrastructure, applications and tools that provide access to storage space, software and computing power. 

Cloud infrastructure comes in handy in everyday personal and business life. 

Whether your business is conducted in the office, from home, or in hybrid mode, the cloud is a solution that fits every type of need and represents an investment for your business in terms of cost and flexibility.

To increase the benefits and protection of these systems "on the clouds," you can choose to adopt two or more environments and/or applications that communicate with each other, creating a structure based entirely on multi-cloud infrastructure. 

 

Multi cloud for a multi-purpose

The multi-cloud infrastructures are systems composed of multiple cloud services that host enterprise resources and applications, which talk to each other. This approach allows workloads to be distributed across multiple platforms, such as Google Cloud Platform (GCP) and Microsoft Azure.

The main goal of those who choose to work with multi-cloud systems is to operate on flexible systems that make it possible to prevent the loss of information caused by future malicious events. With specific backup procedures, one is able to preserve data, copying or moving it as needed between platforms.

The benefits of multi cloud

There are several advantages to adopting a multi-cloud architecture:

    • Failure Resilience: By using multiple cloud platforms, you can reduce the risk of service interruptions. If one provider experiences a malfunction or technical problem, applications and data can be easily moved to another cloud without significant disruption.
    • Flexibility and Scalability:With a multi-cloud environment, it is possible to select the most suitable platform for each specific use case. Some applications may benefit from the capabilities of one provider, while others may require a different set of cloud services. In addition, scalability can be managed more efficiently by using the resources available on multiple platforms.
    • Improved performance: Using multiple cloud providers allows you to make resources available to end users in datacenters closer to them, in different geographic regions, optimizing application performance.
    • Cost Optimization:By thinking about a multi-cloud architecture, you as an enterprise can negotiate competitive prices with vendors and take advantage of special offers or best available rates. In addition, adopting multiple vendors allows you to not be dependent on a single vendor and mitigate any price increases.

All the benefits offered by integrating cloud software within your business environment are at their best when there is effective planning and management that allows you to take full advantage of all the features offered by the various platforms.

 

The many of the multi cloud faces

In most cases, individual Cloud infrastructures use their own interface. You may thus find yourself using multiple Cloud systems, each with a different system, thus slowing down your day-to-day work to interact with interfaces you are unfamiliar with. 

Using a general interface that allows you to manage your cloud platforms is the most effective way to continue using multiple systems without having to acquire specific training for each system.This way your team will be able to manage their resources completely independently. 

Using the various services will be much easier because you can use one interface for all your activities, so you will save time and money, getting the best out of your tools.

 

Integrating multiple systems

The help of a partner such as Hycu is essential to easily manage the saving and backup of your data between clouds using a single, intuitive interface. 

Based on your needs, you can choose which and how many cloud systems to integrate within your enterprise network and how to use them. 

With Mirroring Backup, you can retrieve information instantly. This method is one of the fastest on the market because it copies both folders and individual files without any compression. The goal of this backup solution is to ensure business continuity with immediate file recovery in the event of an incident, without causing an interruption in your company's operations or service deployment. 

In order to ensure maximum protection, it would be best to complement mirroring backup with another backup strategy, such as the next one.

The Disaster recovery, consists of data rescue and restoration that is triggered in system- or human-caused emergency situations. With continuous and pre-set automatic backups, your work is always safe and you can get back to using your data instantly, ensuring the continuity of your services.

Another use case of the multi-cloud system is "Lift and Shift". This practice allows you to move an app or an entire infrastructure from one hosting environment (even on premise) to another without making any special changes. With lift and shift, your organization can run the app in the cloud natively while ensuring that the data is protected. 

Cloud environment integration also allows your organization to create a cloud-to-cloud disaster recovery plan so that, in the event of a provider outage, IT can restart workloads on another cloud environment.

 

Implement your multi cloud strategy now

With Hycu, you have the ability to manage your multi cloud system with complete peace of mind, from data storage to backups to save procedures, anywhere, anytime.

Simplicity is the keyword of this solution. 

Hycu is designed to facilitate the passage of information between clouds, ensuring that it is done safely and without any loss of data in the process.  

Multi-cloud is now a reality for many organizations: good management of data transfers between these different cloud systems is crucial.
