or just cluster over several other providers and make sure to test failover

the main problem with azure/aws/gcp is that their parent companies will track everything you and others do, and then close every related thing because they have enough market share to not give a fuck about you.

There are more than enough blog posts of enterprise customers running into random issues with the big thing, buying "big three, promise edition" isn't much of an assurance.

I'd suspect most of those customers have rapid migration plans written up. For a reason.

I can assure you from experience that most large customers do not. For either major cloud, most large customers will have adopted proprietary services like AWS Redshift or GCP's Cloud Bigtable or Bigquery. None of these have anything like the possibility of a "rapid migration".

I'm not sure GCP really comes up in discussions about "either major cloud". Distant third place, looking more like becoming fourth before they get to second.

I feel like you’ve just ignored everything I mentioned, made up a bunch of hand wavy stuff and ended up with what might be actively the worst idea (multi-cloud) as a solution.

Not sure what to say in response here…
