What are the design considerations for building a multi-cloud strategy?

HomeResourcesBlogWhat are the design considerations for building a multi-cloud strategy?
November 29, 2021 | AWS, Cloud Computing
Read Time: 10:00

Companies seek the freedom and choice of numerous cloud providers to leverage the finest cloud development services and minimize software development costs. According to a recent analysis, by the International Data Corporation, multi-cloud usage will skyrocket with more than 85% of IT firms investing in it. Working across several clouds and platforms brings with it plenty of new challenges. The most basic issue that CTOs encounter is a lack of awareness of cloud technologies.

Delivering on a multi-cloud strategy is as challenging as determining whether or not to have one at all.

A multi-cloud choice requires thorough consideration followed by detailed planning and faultless execution to reach your objective.

Multi-cloud Strategy

A multi-cloud approach involves the usage of two or more cloud services at the same time, such as AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and others.  This implies you could use Google Cloud to serve your US clients and Microsoft Azure to service your European consumers.

Or, for a single application, you might combine Azure SQL for databases and Cognito for user management as well as AWS EC2 instances with Load Balancing. Furthermore, your software may be hosted primarily on Digital Ocean but is mirrored and backed up on AWS.

However, a multi-cloud approach should not be confused with the utilization of multiple clouds. The objective with the former is to have applications and services distributed across various clouds. The demand for a network to route between the 2 locations is shared by all multi-cloud strategies.

Let’s take a look at why a business would pick a multi-cloud approach in the first place.

  • Make the most of CSP capabilities

    Each CSP thrives in some aspect. AWS wins in IaaS, Google Cloud specializes in data processing and management, while Azure shines at delivering enterprise apps and services. A thorough analysis of CSPs might result in a matrix that guides selection based on application requirements.

  • Consider cost

    Savings are often recognized at extremely high volumes; hence the cost is not the most typical reason for pursuing a multi-cloud approach. If pricing is the most important factor in deciding on a multi-cloud strategy, consider controlling your vendor through a solid and transparent partnership. Price wars rage on as each CSP reduces its costs to attract the most cost-conscious cloud customers.

  • Continuity of Business

    Some apps and services are so important that the architecture calls for dividing functionality over two different cloud providers to avoid any regional challenges that one provider may encounter. Significant app and service design issues must be addressed in these circumstances before committing to a multi-cloud strategy.

  • Outages

    While extremely unusual, CSP outages have occurred in the past and will occur again. For the most mission-critical applications, protecting oneself against these disruptions may be a need.

Considerations

Once you’ve decided to take a multi-cloud strategy, here are some things to think about to help you avoid the possible problems.

  1. Network Connectivity

    Regardless of the reason for employing several clouds for application and service delivery, connection across the clouds is generally required. Some services and data repositories can be accessed securely through the internet; however, many internal applications and services require routable communication between components and CSPs.

    Consider what apps and services will require a routable link between components when building for multi-cloud network connectivity. Because of the intricacy of global network architecture, the implementation of an IPAM solution is most likely required.

  2. Integration of Security

    Integration with company security systems & policies is never an easy task. Security integration takes two forms: cloud access authorization and safeguarding the environments where applications and services are installed. Integration of IAM via an SSO solution such as Okta is a typical design pattern for addressing cloud consumer access. Scanning tools, log aggregation, and threat prevention agents are also used to secure the CSP environment. These factors must be considered early in the design process.

  3. Application Coverage

    Identify the apps and services that must be deployed across different clouds, guided by a business requirement and a technical design, and work to automate provisioning and administration using scripts and templates (e.g., Terraform, configuration management, etc.)

  4. Skillsets

    While it is not something that everyone likes to discuss, skillsets must be addressed to guarantee that cloud customers can effectively function throughout all CSPs that comprise the multi-cloud strategy. Nearly all CSPs provide formal training online or on-site, which may be used to speed up the process of skilling up employees and staff.

As you can see, implementing a multi-cloud approach is not an easy operation. This involves everything from deciding to embark on a multi-cloud journey to defining the requirements, building the groundwork, and finding and delivering apps and services to the multi-cloud environment.

Final Words

Amazon Web Services (AWS) is the industry leader in cloud computing. As more organizations transition to the cloud, there is a greater need for AWS solution architects. Architecting on AWS is a fantastic method to leverage market needs and use your IT abilities for high-paying employment. If you are an IT professional wanting to enhance your career, here is your opportunity to shift gears and take it to the next level.

AWS offers all of the benefits of the cloud, including flexibility, shorter time-to-market, and elasticity, among other things. In terms of data availability and high transfer stability, AWS exceeds other cloud service providers on the market.
