Google debunks Myths about Multicloud

Google debunks myths about Multicloud in the white paper 5 ways Google can help you succeed in the multicloud world (PDF, May 2021):

Myth #1: Multicloud is expensive 

Reality: Managed strategically, multicloud can give you the flexibility you need to lower your overall IT costs. An all-in one cloud approach means you are locked into the features and services of one vendor for multiple years. Operating in multiple clouds lets you choose the most cost effective solution for your business and leverage providers against each other to get the best price.

Myth #2: Most organizations are all in one cloud

Reality: According to research from Gartner, a majority of enterprises are currently hybrid in nature with plans to move to more than one cloud in the future. 

Myth #3: You can’t have speed and reliability in multicloud

Reality: With the combined strength of Google Cloud’s easy to use developer tools and advanced monitoring across environments with Apigee and the operations suite your developers can quickly write code and deploy it in multiple environments while your platform operators still have a holistic view into all the services to ensure reliability

Myth #4: Multicloud is complex and difficult to manage

Reality: Using Anthos, you can manage your containerized applications across multiple cloud and on-premises environments from a single management plane. Anthos centralizes management and brings the best of GKE’s easy-to-use control plane to every environment.

Anthos is a suite of products that enables you to run Kubernetes clusters anywhere, in cloud and on-premises, and on bare metal servers. It also offers automated policy and security using Anthos Config Management, and a fully-managed service mesh with built-in visibility. Anthos is a managed application platform allowing you to modernize applications faster and establish operational consistency across them using Google Cloud services and engineering best practices. 

Myth #5: Multicloud forces you down the path of the lowest common denominator

Reality: With the right choices, a multicloud approach can result in a race to the top. With analysis tools that work across clouds and break down data silos, you don’t have to be limited to the best tools just your current cloud offers, but you can take advantage of the best services available anywhere.

Myth #6: Multicloud is not secure

Reality: You can secure multicloud environments with similar tools that you would use to secure your Google Cloud environment. Distributing applications and  data across multiple clouds may actually  make your environment more resilient than putting all your eggs in one basket.
