BiB084 – Public Clouds Are Proprietary and Dont Care About You


I was hosting a panel for ONUG London this week and this was the topic of discussion.

Enterprise are signalling that they believe in multi-cloud. It is a problem that multi-cloud means different things to different people e.g. Infrastructure  vs Developers, Pre-pack vs DIY, On-prem vs Off-prem cloud and so on. The marketing fog surrounding this market does create some confusion about what exactly multi-cloud is.
Perhaps the most substantial challenge of multi-cloud is the lack of interoperability and divergence of public cloud services.  This is further compounded by aggressive addition of new services to clouds that are internally developed with zero consideration for customer interoperatibility. Perhaps the most visible aspect of this is that AWS continues its corporate branding that there is only one cloud. Its not public, multi or hybrid. AWS is THE CLOUD and the small number of salary slaves who are permitted to speak in public must toe this line or become un-salary slaves.
Each cloud vendor has fully incompatible network plans. From the models of their virtual networks, to their private APIs and total lack of transparency into upcoming plans, there is not 
The conclusion is that the future of public cloud interoperability is none. Customers are on their own and face hostile suppliers who are truly uncaring what the customer wants. Lets face it, Azure, Google are AWS are bigger than any their customers and they have very few reasons to listen to you.
