Not all clouds are created equal | Ep.1

When you're working with multiple cloud providers (especially the big three), it’s easy to assume everything will connect smoothly. But as many teams learn, that’s not always the case. 

In this episode, Trent Blakely is joined by Jay Turner, SVP of Product Planning and Development at PCCW Global, to unpack the hidden pitfalls of multi-cloud deployments. They explore overlooked connectivity issues, how to catch failures before they happen, and share real-world lessons on quirks across AWS, Google Cloud, and Azure.
