About this tag
Multicloud resilience refers to the ability of organizations to maintain service availability and data protection across multiple cloud providers, mitigating the impact of outages and configuration errors. Recent incidents, such as the Cloudflare December 2025 outage caused by a WAF parsing change, the Azure Front Door outage in October 2025 that disrupted Microsoft 365 and Xbox Live, and a Microsoft 365 outage from a configuration change in August 2025, highlight the risks of single-cloud dependency. These events underscore the need for robust backup strategies, such as those recognized in the Veeam awards for data protection, and careful change management to ensure business continuity in a multicloud environment.
