In this chapter, we focused on multi-cloud environments. We reviewed the importance of having a multi-cloud strategy to allow organizations to adopt multi-cloud environments. We also discussed the various IAM solutions from AWS, Azure, and GCP that allow organizations to have a central directory service that can keep a single identity for each end user.
We looked at the various methods from AWS, Azure, and GCP to allow organizations to connect between different cloud environments on different cloud providers using a site-to-site VPN tunnel or a dedicated private connection.
