Challenges of Multi-Cloud Although multi-cloud has its benefits, it also presents some obstacles. If there is a sudden increase in traffic for an application that fails on the public cloud, it becomes impractical to use cloud bursting as a solution which leads to inevitable periods without service.

This is why most AWS regions have three availability zones. When there’s three ways to succeed, we still have two ways to succeed when a failure is present, and if data is corrupted, we can tell which of the three is the odd one out. There is no need to retry and no extra time taken when a failure is present.
