New research found that IT leaders use multiple cloud providers to benefit from reduced costs and more control over their data<\/strong><\/p>\n

Multicloud is the new reality in enterprise technology according to a study from 451 Research, part of S&P Global Market Intelligence, commissioned by Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. The study collected information from 1,500 respondents at enterprises\u2014organizations with more than 1,000 full-time employees in North America or more than 500 in other regions\u2014about how they use the cloud within their organization and found that almost every cloud journey is now becoming a multicloud journey.
\nIn recent years, cloud has become nearly synonymous with IT as enterprises seek increased business agility and improved operational efficiency from the technology they use. While these trends have existed for some time, more than 90 percent of respondents agreed that the COVID-19 pandemic has been a strong driver of greater interest and investment in cloud technology. As organizations faced new challenges such as increased levels of remote work and collaboration with new business partners and suppliers, they adopted a multicloud strategy to gain the flexibility and scalability they needed for this new reality.
\n\u201cThe \u2018one-stop-shop\u2019 mentality has died when it comes to the cloud. Instead, multicloud is the reality of enterprise technology environments as these organizations seek to get the right mix of solutions and capabilities they need to operate effectively,\u201d said Melanie Posey, research director, Cloud & Managed Services Transformation at 451 Research. \u201cMulticloud is here to stay, and enterprises are choosing this model for the benefits it provides for a range of different business and operational requirements, like business agility or access to best-of-breed technology.\u201d<\/p>\n

Key findings from the study include:<\/p>\n

Almost every cloud journey is multicloud<\/strong>
\n\u2022 98 percent of enterprises surveyed are using or plan to use at least two cloud infrastructure providers and 31 percent are using four or more.
\n\u2022 96 percent reported they are using or plan to use at least two cloud application providers (Software-as-a-Service), with 45 percent using cloud applications from five or more providers.
\n\u2022 This multicloud strategy allows IT departments to meet the specific technology needs of different teams across the organization.<\/p>\n

Data sovereignty and cost optimization are driving demand for multicloud strategies<\/strong>
\n\u2022 The top two drivers of multicloud strategies in enterprises are data sovereignty (41 percent) and cost optimization (40 percent).
\n\u2022 Other drivers of multicloud strategies include business agility and innovation (30 percent), best of breed cloud services and applications (25 percent) and cloud vendor lock-in concerns (25 percent).
\n\u2022 Multicloud strategies give enterprises more control over where and how their data is stored and used, while also ensuring businesses can control the costs of their cloud operations by adjusting which services they use from different providers.<\/p>\n

Enterprise organizations are proactively planning multicloud strategies for the future<\/strong>
\n\u2022 Data redundancy (54 percent) is the most anticipated future use case, followed by data mobility (49 percent) and cost optimization across public clouds (42 percent).
\n\u2022 IT departments also plan to use multicloud strategies for risk mitigation for the entire IT environment (40 percent) and geographic expansion or global service delivery (38 percent).
\n\u2022 The fact that IT departments are planning multicloud strategies shows that they see multicloud as a way to get ahead of their technology needs, instead of simply a tactic to react to crises.<\/p>\n

\u201cMulticloud is here, whether enterprises are ready for it or not. Business mergers can turn even the most stable of IT strategies into a multicloud environment overnight,\u201d said Leo Leung, vice president, OCI and Oracle Technology. \u201cWhether IT teams are starting their multicloud plans from scratch or already have an implementation in place but want to add best-of-breed cloud services, OCI\u2019s distributed cloud can help. With the recent introduction of MySQL HeatWave on AWS and Oracle Database Service for Microsoft Azure, customers have even more capabilities to help their multicloud strategies succeed.\u201d
\nThis research validates the approach OCI has taken with its distributed cloud and management offerings, which earned Oracle recognition as a leader in the recent Omdia Universe: Hybrid and Multicloud Management Solution, 2022\u201323 report (November 2022).

Methodology<\/strong>
\nThe survey data used in this report was collected by 451 Research, part of S&P Global Market Intelligence, and commissioned by Oracle. The global survey was fielded in the third quarter of 2022 and is based on a cross-industry sample of 1,500 enterprise respondents in North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Middle East, and Latin America. For the purposes of this survey, \u201centerprise\u201d is defined as an organization with more than 1,000 full-time employees (North America) or more than 500 full-time employees (other geographic regions).<\/p>\n
