  1. Discussion around definition of multi-cloud

Existing definitions of hybrid cloud:

  • SNIA Dictionary: hybrid cloud [Cloud] A composition of two or more clouds of different types (private, community, or public).
  • ISO definition of hybrid cloud: “cloud deployment model that uses a private cloud and public cloud.”

Existing definitions of multi-cloud:

  • SC 38’s ISO/IEC 5140 project (Concepts for multi-cloud and multiple cloud services) defines it as “cloud deployment model in which a CSC uses public cloud services provided by two or more CSPs”
  • Wikipedia defines Multicloud as: "Multicloud (also spelled multi-cloud or multi cloud) is a company's use of multiple cloud computing and storage services from different vendors in a single heterogeneous architecture to improve cloud infrastructure capabilities and cost. It also refers to the distribution of cloud assets, software, applications, etc. across several cloud-hosting environments. With a typical multicloud architecture utilizing two or more public clouds as well as multiple private clouds, a multicloud environment aims to eliminate the reliance on any single cloud provider.
  • Mark's suggested definition for multi-cloud: Multi-cloud is a design and implementation that integrates together two or more clouds, private or public, into a single cloud infrastructure. This is intended to avoid vendor lock-in, improve availability, and take advantage of competitive pricing of different cloud services.

Multi cloud vs. multicloud vs. multi-cloud?

  • ISO uses "multi-cloud".
  • This is also our preference.

Proposed SNIA Dictionary additions:

  • Multi-cloud [Cloud] A deployment model involving multiple clouds from two or more different cloud service providers when used together to accomplish a common goal.

Discussion notes:

  • ISO dropped "community cloud" out of the hybrid cloud definition.
