What is Multi-Cloud Security?
Cloud providers have created a paradigm shift in managing infrastructure and deploying applications. In the early days of cloud adoption, a single cloud provider was enough for a company to meet all business requirements. Today, companies need multiple cloud providers at once to benefit from marginal features because nobody wants to miss any features or services offered by a different cloud provider.
In addition, there’s always a new service offering from other cloud providers that’s cheaper, more flexible and more reliable. This is the natural result of a highly competitive market with ongoing, extensive technological development. Moreover, running your application on multiple clouds helps mitigate risk; even if disaster strikes in one cloud provider, your application can continue running on another, which is priceless for business reputation.
However, the management of a multi-cloud architecture is extremely complex since cloud providers are very different from each other in terms of access, resource management and API. Also, you need to implement multi-cloud security to protect your infrastructure, application and data in multiple clouds.
In this blog, we focus on the challenges of multi-cloud security. We also cover best practices to protect your cloud-native applications while enjoying the benefits of running them across multiple cloud providers.
