Multi-cloud databases have gained popularity as a result of the constant growth in the amount of data that enterprises need to store and access. Businesses can combine the advantages of both public and private cloud alternatives with the help of these databases. However, how can you choose the multi-cloud database that is best for your company? We'll talk about the numerous solutions accessible and their benefits and drawbacks in this blog post.
1. What Are Multi-Cloud Databases?
Multi-cloud databases are databases that are distributed across multiple cloud providers for increased resiliency and redundancy. This ensures that the data is safe from a single point of failure and is not dependent on a single cloud provider. Through this approach, should there be an outage on one cloud provider, the user is able to maintain their database operations as the other cloud provider will be unaffected. Multi-cloud databases can mean that the user will have to manage multiple databases, however, this can be mitigated by selecting a database like CockroachDB, a Multi-active multi-cloud resilient database solution.
