Correct answers: B, D
Explanation
Multicloud strategies, when planned carefully, allow organizations to use the best services from multiple cloud providers while avoiding dependence on a single vendor. However, they require thoughtful planning for data transfers, network configuration, and governance across clouds. For more information, refer to the official Oracle documentation on multicloud architectures and best practices.
- A. Incorrect.
Incorrect. While data replication across clouds is possible, it typically involves additional configurations, network setup, and potential data transfer costs. It is not guaranteed to be �minimal complexity.�
- B. Correct.
Correct. One of the core benefits of multicloud is the ability to take advantage of each cloud provider� unique, specialized services. For example, OCI offers robust support for Oracle databases, while another cloud might excel in AI/ML or analytics.
- C. Incorrect.
Incorrect. Simply adopting a multicloud strategy does not automatically halve costs. Actual cost savings depend on workload distribution, negotiated pricing, and efficient resource usage.
- D. Correct.
Correct. Adopting more than one cloud provider can reduce the risk of lock-in, allowing flexibility to move or expand workloads as business requirements change or new features become available.
