Surveying over 250 worldwide business executives and IT professionals from a diverse group of technical backgrounds, Denodo's cloud usage survey revealed that hybrid cloud configurations are the centre of all cloud deployments at 42 percent, followed by public and private clouds.

The advantages of hybrid cloud and multi-cloud configurations according to respondents include the ability to diversify spend and skills, build resiliency, and cherry-pick features and capabilities depending on each cloud service provider's particular strengths, all while avoiding the dreaded vendor lock-in.

A foundational metric for demonstrating cloud adoption maturity, 78 percent of all respondents are running some kind of a workload in the cloud.

"As data's center of gravity shifts to the cloud, hybrid cloud and multi-cloud architectures are becoming the basis of data management, but the challenge of integrating data in the cloud has almost doubled," said Ravi Shankar, SVP and CMO of Denodo.

"Today, users are looking to simplify cloud data integration in a hybrid/multi-cloud environment without having to depend on heavy duty data migration or replication which may be why almost 50 percent of respondents said they are considering data virtualization as a key part of their cloud integration and migration strategy."
