1 like377 views
This document summarizes a panel discussion on hybrid cloud platforms. It finds that most companies now use multiple public and private cloud platforms due to the flexibility, efficiency and speed benefits this provides. However, key challenges of a multi-cloud approach include enforcing security and access controls, managing tools and costs across platforms, and ensuring consistent developer experiences. Participants agreed that a consistent hybrid cloud platform is needed to address these challenges and provide benefits like broader service offerings, faster innovation and easier regulatory compliance.
