Multi-cloud promises a lot in terms of application portability, flexible choice of infrastructure, high availability, and cost savings. However, managing multiple Kubernetes clusters across various cloud platforms and on-premise comes with its own challenges. Operations become much more complex, monitoring and observability is opaque, and getting different parts of the system to work with each other means constant tinkering and tweaking.
For multi-cloud Kubernetes clusters to function at scale it involves three priorities:
- networking,
- identity (authentication, authorization), and
- persistent data storage.
