For example you could load-balance between instances in different clouds. What I believe people do is that they automate their instance/application provisioning so that they can deploy instantly in their cloud of choice, coupled with things like load balancing and global DNS you have very resilient apps across clouds and geos. You might consider cold migration among clouds as a re-provisioning of an instance. Think how much time it takes to transfer a 20 GB image versus restarting from scratch. > Best regards > Cyrill > > Cyrill Häfeli > IT Infrastructure Manager > +41 (0) 43 204 06 26 > cyrill.haef...@appway.com<mailto:cyrill.haef...@appway.com> > > Join Appway Developer<http://developer.appway.com> - the one-stop source of > know-how for professionals developing with Appway. > > Follow us on: appway.com<http://www.appway.com/> | > twitter<http://www.twitter.com/appway>| > linkedin<http://www.linkedin.com/company/appway> | > facebook<http://www.facebook.com/appway> >
