Listen "When Does Multi-Cloud Make Sense with Phoummala Schmitt"
Episode Synopsis
Does multi-cloud make sense? Richard chats with Phoummala Schmitt about her explorations into building workloads that can survive a cloud outage. Phoummala begins the conversation with some definitions because most organizations are multi-cloud already, using more than one cloud provider. Referencing Gartner and Thoughtworks, the term "polycloud" covers that idea. Then the hard part - a workload that needs perfect uptime, even in the face of a cloud provider outage. That is a more complex and expensive proposition, but it is possible once you work through the details. The question is - is it worth it?Links:PolycloudKubernetesKubernetes Cloud Controller ManagerAzure ArcRecorded February 16, 2023
