The Challenge

A global financial services company was locked into a single cloud provider, facing vendor dependency risks, limited geographic coverage, and suboptimal pricing for different workload types. They needed a strategic approach to leverage multiple cloud providers while maintaining operational efficiency.

The challenge was to design and implement a multi-cloud architecture that would provide vendor independence, cost optimization, and improved global performance while ensuring seamless orchestration and management.

Key Challenges:

  • Vendor lock-in with single cloud provider
  • Limited geographic presence for global operations
  • Suboptimal pricing for diverse workload types
  • Complex compliance requirements across regions
  • Need for unified management and monitoring
