How did John Mosquera address the challenge of vendor lock-in while designing a multi-cloud architecture for a client at MMT Digital?
assistant
The client initially had siloed infrastructure within a single cloud provider, posing risks related to vendor lock-in. To solve this, John implemented a multi-cloud strategy leveraging Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools like Terraform and CloudFormation. He created reusable modules that abstracted differences between Azure and AWS services, enabling seamless provisioning across both platforms. This approach allowed the client to dynamically shift workloads between clouds based on cost and performance needs. John Mosquera mitigated vendor lock-in risks by designing a flexible multi-cloud architecture using Terraform and CloudFormation, empowering the client to operate across Azure and AWS efficiently.
