Summary

As we draw a line under our multi-cloud expedition chapter, let’s pause and take a breath, enjoying the spectacular panorama from this vista. The obstacles we’ve negotiated, the enlightenment we’ve acquired, and the best practices we’ve unearthed—they all contribute to making this journey enriching.

Let’s reflect on the rich insights we’ve gleaned regarding the design of cloud-native applications for multi-cloud platforms. We have delved into the unique aspects of multi-cloud environments and understood the nuances of multi-cloud architecture, as well as the instrumental role played by cloud-native technologies, containers, and microservices in such settings. We have explored essential principles for designing applications in this landscape and navigated the labyrinth of data management in multi-cloud.

We have also underscored the vital role of monitoring and observability, identified the significance of cost optimization...
