Summary

As businesses increasingly rely on public cloud providers, they face significant risks, including potential global banking disruptions from hacks or outages due to overreliance on a limited number of providers. Vendor lock-in poses additional challenges, such as regulatory risks and financial vulnerabilities, exemplified by Dropbox's decision to migrate off AWS to control costs. CockroachDB offers a solution by facilitating multi-cloud deployments, which mitigate these risks through a self-healing, elastic data layer capable of spanning both private and public clouds. This approach shifts the focus from disaster recovery to resilience and allows companies to maintain control over their data management, addressing concerns raised by industry executives about the need for alternative solutions to vendor lock-in.
