Kubernetes Everywhere: Lessons Learned From Going Multi-Cloud - Niko Smeds, Grafana Labs

Many companies are interested in deploying their products across multiple cloud providers, but few actually see it through. While benefits like avoiding provider lock-in and increased uptime during provider outages are attractive, several factors are important to consider. Grafana Labs successfully deployed across AWS, Azure, DigitalOcean, GCP, and Linode in more than 30 regions; that includes inter-cloud network connections. This talk will explore some of the large and subtle differences in networking and managed Kubernetes services between said providers. We’ll discuss the approaches we took while scaling our infrastructure across multiple environments, the challenges we faced, and what worked in the end.

nice and clear talk, but only talk about 'Going Multi-Cloud', nothing about about the details of multi-cloud topology and management.
