How Software-Defined Solutions Make Multicloud Financially Feasible
Dell News, April 13th, 2023
Multicloud doesn't have to break the bank. Fiscal fine-tuning and software-defined solutions can achieve optimal business outcomes.
Is cloud repatriation becoming a new trend? According to a recent TechCrunch article, many organizations are starting to migrate their workloads and data out of the public cloud and back on-premises to 'escape out-of-control costs, deepening complexity and restrictive vendor lock-in.'
While there have been some stories in the press and on social media about a great cloud exodus, it may be a bit overblown. Both the Dell 2022 GDPI Index and ESG's IT Spending Intentions Survey report most organizations have been running about a 50/50 mix of workloads between their on-premises infrastructure and the public cloud for several years, and this shows no signs of abating. Still, the issues of rising public cloud costs, increased cloud complexity and cloud vendor lock-in are all valid concerns.
