Excerpt about Multicloud taken from our e-book Trends Report: technology & outsourcing
In the beginning, there seemed to be no limits to cloud computing. Without the constraints of physical servers, the creation of new products and services was only limited by developers’ imagination. This scenario led numerous companies to move their data and applications to cloud environments. The adoption of multi-platform strategies such as Multicloud represented a quest for accelerated innovation, agility, flexibility, growth, and cost reduction – all made possible by the on-demand consumption model. But what came next?
Multicloud and multitasking
To manage a multicloud strategy effectively, a dedicated IT team is essential. This is because implementing multicloud involves integrating different platforms and services, as well as configuring and managing complex infrastructures. This team should be responsible for monitoring platforms, managing data integration, costs, and ensuring regulatory compliance.

But what if a company cannot or does not want to form an internal dedicated team? The answer is outsourcing. By opting for third-party services, the company gains access to a specialized squad in cloud technologies that already has experience and knowledge of different providers and application architectures. Additionally, outsourcing is a source of agility and efficiency in implementing and managing multicloud, as the hired company has advanced automation and orchestration tools and resources to optimize the performance and security of cloud platforms.
