Summary

Ngrok advocates for a simplified multicloud networking model, addressing the complexity and challenges associated with using multiple cloud providers. The text highlights the significant barriers and complexities of multicloud setups, including networking, security, configuration management, and observability, while acknowledging the potential benefits such as improved availability, redundancy, and cost arbitrage. It discusses the challenges of cross-cloud networking, identity and access management, configuration drift, and lack of intuitive observability, while suggesting that API gateways can partially mitigate these issues by unifying routing, centralizing security policies, and standardizing API configurations. Ngrok suggests using an API gateway that comes bundled with essential cross-cloud networking needs, aiming to reduce complexity and enhance scalability. The company promotes its multicloud API gateway as a solution that integrates seamlessly across different environments and offers a streamlined setup process.
