The global trading system is starting to rearrange itself
&gt; This will take time. Decoupling is not an instantaneous process. China spent two decades becoming the workshop of the world; the rest of the developing world isn’t going to mirror that accomplishment in one or two years.<p>It is all about dependency trees. The US decides to divert imports from China to other countries, which in turn may import from China.<p>This reminds me of my day-to-day work so much; especially w.r.t. transitive dependency management. So:<p>If service A is 100% dependent upon service B which is 100% dependent upon service C, then service A is 100% dependent on service C.<p>At some point you need redundancy to protect against disruptions, outages, supply chain issues, policy changes, wars (either physical or economic), etc.<p>My (probably silly) question is: Does anyone know of &quot;building block&quot; or &quot;core&quot; services (such as authentication, authorization, BLOB storage, data storage, queuing) which are multi-cloud by design? Meaning service X offers SLAs for service endpoints hosted in AWS, GCP <i>and</i> Azure? If&#x2F;when any of these &quot;go down&quot;, consumers can (automatically?) flip a switch to route to another cloud service implementation?
