Enterprises today are adopting a multi-cloud environment, either as a conscious decision or as a default. However, most of them either don’t have the knowledge or the technology tools to implement an effective multi-cloud strategy; or they have an inadequate environment, comprising multiple siloed clouds, which was not consciously planned and articulated. As a result, enterprises end up with an unoptimized IT environment, hindering digital transformation inside their businesses.

In this report, we look at the definition of multi-cloud. We consider why enterprises should contemplate a multi-cloud strategy—the challenges, benefits and impacts—and provide a view of how leading IaaS vendors may fit into the multi-cloud strategy.
