Organizations are already multi-cloud. They often have a cloud-like infrastructure on-premises like VMware or Nutanix. They may also have cloud-native applications based on SQL, SAP HANA or PostgreSQL. Even if the organization doesn’t have a cloud-native application, they may want to use the cloud for off-site storage or disaster recovery. In any of these uses cases the organization needs a multi-cloud data management strategy and backup software can deliver on many of the requirements. IT planners, however, need to closely examine the sacrifices that these solutions might force them to make. Legacy solutions may require an external and potentially foreign user interface, and so-called cloud-native applications may not provide on-premises protection.
