In line with other research on the subject, data integration and virtualisation specialist, [Denodo](https://www.denodo.com/en/system/files/document-attachments/wp-denodoglobalcloudsurvey2019-01.pdf), has just released a study which surveyed just over 200 organisations from North America (60%), EMEA (30%), and APAC (10%). The findings supported the trend that as companies evaluate the available choices, multi-cloud architecture is becoming a popular way to balance costs and features, as not all cloud solutions are the same.  ## Hybrid cloud is top choice, for now While [hybrid cloud](https://blog.consoleconnect.com/hybrid-cloud-as-an-antidote-to-network-complexity?hsLang=en-us) still remains the top choice for deployments (77%), the research found that there is a growing interest in a [multi-cloud](https://consoleconnect.com/clouds/) approach (46%) and it’s likely that the two strategies will be adopted in tandem. [Find out more about dedicated **connectivity to different cloud providers** in our ebook: Console Connect Use Cases](https://cta-service-cms2.hubspot.com/web-interactives/public/v1/track/click?encryptedPayload=AVxigLLMerWveMiZgIb0omiFDFKQGcsuXmcSg0zj4a3zGlIxphe4Y5pZpl8ftxarTtGktOxtM5uQZ6JAak4iPzEX1ar6SSvcSzHiLxHHIMCFTM8CuYScxbTnl7ZoZmyxsX9JTp2hpyPRSORFSN1uPfqduPhBAxSPfAM9MKCpU0GI%2F0lpYIF1n4CLUrm5guvRjwLVwxFBBbe%2B1fYMiRLckumYkiT36BF%2FrA4rjEOlx2%2B3IPs%3D&portalId=3076203) One of the more interesting findings is that more than 40% of the respondents are seeing enhanced value in re-architecting their applications when migrating to cloud. Also, while adoption rates seem to be on a strong growth curve, the key challenges - security (52%), costs and skills - remain the same.  ## The seven key considerations in cloud adoption 1. **The pace for cloud adoption continues to increase**, with 36% of companies already in the midst of cloud migrations and close to 20% considering themselves in advanced stages of adoption and implementation. 2. ** [Hybrid cloud](https://blog.consoleconnect.com/simplifying-the-hybrid-cloud?hsLang=en-us) and multi-cloud architectures** account for 60% of the use cases and cloud deployments. 3. **Security remains the top challenge** in the cloud with more than 50% of organizations concerned about security, followed by related challenges around cost management (44%) and the availability of cloud skills (33%). Interestingly, just over a quarter of respondents actually see managing multiple clouds as a challenge, despite the trend for multi cloud adoption. 4. Cloud migration requires proper planning, and around 40% of the **organizations would re-factor or re-architect their applications** to take advantage of cloud computing. 5. **Containerization is becoming mainstream**, with a growing number of organizations embracing it, and [Kubernetes](https://kubernetes.io/) is on the forefront of container orchestration and automation. 6. **Cloud marketplaces have emerged**, with organisations showing an adoption of consumer models, with a whopping 60% interest in pay-as-you-go subscription models; cost and self-service are top considerations for faster exploration and eventually adoption. 7. Unsurprisingly, **AWS and Azure resonate in cloud use cases**, such as virtual data lakes, analytics in the cloud, SaaS integration, cloud data warehouse modernization, and ML/AI in the cloud.
