Hello,
A distributed cloud is an architecture where multiple clouds are used to meet compliance needs, performance requirements, or support edge computing while being centrally managed from the public cloud provider.
In essence, a distributed cloud service is a public cloud that runs in multiple locations, including
- The public cloud provider’s infrastructure
- The public cloud provider’s infrastructure
- In another cloud provider’s data center
- On third party or colocation center hardware
Although there are multiple locations and geographies involved, all of the cloud services are managed as on from a single control plane that handles the differences and inconsistencies in such a hybrid, multi-cloud environment.
Hope this helps
Thanks
