Top 5 Challenges of Monitoring Multi-cloud Environments

Today’s enterprises use many different clouds, which makes monitoring and management more difficult than ever.For most enterprises, multi-cloud has become the new normal.RightScale’s 2018 State of the Cloud Report found that 81 percent of enterprises are using multiple public or private clouds. In fact, on average, they are using 4.8 different clouds. In some ways, this greater reliance on the cloud — particularly the public cloud — has made life easier for IT professionals. After all, it reduces the need to research, select, deploy, and maintain their own IT infrastructure. But in other ways, multi-cloud has introduced new challenges for enterprise IT. As complexity increases — as it inevitably does with multi-cloud — monitoring what is happening in all the different cloud environments becomes much more difficult.
