Why multicloud has become a governance decision
For most IT leaders, multicloud didn't arrive as a decision. It arrived as a fait accompli. A team chose AWS for one workload. Azure came in through a Microsoft enterprise agreement. A SaaS acquisition brought its own cloud dependencies. A DR requirement pointed to a second region with a different provider. Nobody declared a multicloud strategy; the organization just became one. Today, 87% of organizations run a multicloud strategy, balancing an average of 2.6 public cloud providers simultaneously.
