Native cloud services work—up to a point. They speed development of applications that meet the needs of a majority of customers. However, native services are specific to a single cloud provider and they lack the flexibility to accommodate customers whose needs don’t align with those of the majority. Integrating third party vendors that offer common security features and policies across multiple cloud providers may help you accommodate applications that outgrow native services, allowing the continued use of multiple native services in a multi-cloud environment while ensuring consistent and compliant security postures across your applications.
