32. Enterprises need data autonomy to achieve
their multi-cloud goals
Data Autonomy is having the ability to retain control of your data, to be “cloud-agnostic” and the
flexibility to manage your data and apps on any public cloud, private cloud, your own data center,
or combination thereof, independent of the underlying infrastructure.
Data Autonomy Requirements
Business Agility
Take advantage of the benefits of various public cloud providers
(eg: price wars, geographic availability, etc.)
Compliance
Meet compliance requirements such as PII, HIPAA, SOX, and EU’s GDPR
Sovereignty
Retain control over your data with respect to where it's geographically located
Governance
Maintain data integrity, security, and availability which helps achieve compliance
Competitive
Your cloud provider could become your competitor
