Multi-cloud for those times when you really need that level of availability and can afford it.

It's not even about being able to afford it. Some things just don't lend themselves to hot failover. If your data throughput is high, it may not be feasible or possible to stream a redundant copy to a data center outside the network.

All parts of the system should be copied (if you decided to build multi-cloud system), not just some of them.
