    The biggest trend in cloud computing unlocks innovation, shores up resiliency, and delivers competitive advantages. A multi-cloud approach is a combination of different cloud services supplied by more than one cloud provider. These cloud providers could be public clouds like AWS, Azure, or Google as well as private clouds built on VMware. Enterprises look to multi-cloud strategies to improve business resilience, access the leading capabilities regardless of vendor, and to eliminate cloud vendor lock-in. Cloud services like Business Intelligence, AI, and Machine Learning have moved into software-as-a-service (SaaS) or platform-as-a-service (PaaS) consumption models. Sharing a common datastore between clouds unlocks innovations from every cloud while eliminating data gravity concerns and avoiding storing multiple (possibly out-of-sync) copies of the same data.
