How to Plan for a Multi-Cloud World

When cloud computing first emerged, the question on many CIOs’ minds was whether to adopt it at all. Eventually, the question became not whether, but when. Now it’s which cloud tools and platforms to use—and how to ensure they work together seamlessly and securely. One of the great opportunities of cloud technology is the ability to combine and integrate different tools, services, and platforms. We are entering a future marked by openness and interoperability: According to recent research, 82 percent of enterprises have a hybrid cloud strategy, running applications in an average of 1.5 public clouds and 1.7 private clouds; and IDC predicts increasing adoption of hybrid cloud architectures. At Google Cloud, we’re firm believers in an open cloud future where vendor lock-in is a practice of the past and customers’ data belong to them. Because at the end of the day, cloud is about connecting people to the information they need in order to be successful.
