Leadership wants two public clouds “for safety” for the same Kafka and Spark stack, but the city has deep skills in only one provider. What caution should the Big Data lead raise?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Owning two brands of fire truck does not help if the crew only trained on one. Multi-cloud “for safety” without skills often doubles the ways things break. Pick depth you can operate before chasing logos.
Full Explanation
Multi-cloud Big Data deployments increase control-plane, identity, networking, and runbook surface area. Without staff skilled on both providers, the city can inherit more failure modes rather than fewer. Automatic safety from dual clouds is a misconception. BDPC-level judgment treats multi-cloud as a complexity decision, not a default badge of resilience.
