Abstract: Healthcare organisations are being overwhelmed by data, devices and apps, and disjointed multiple cloud services. Well-heeled multicloud can provide a unified cloud model that provides greater control and scalability at reduced costs. Healthcare multicloud is turning into an appealing path for associations to manage the blast of advanced healthcare information in digital health, internet of things, associated gadgets and healthcare applications. As more human services associations grasp distributed computing, they are progressively going to a blend of open, private, and hybrid cloud administrations and foundation. In fact most of the healthcare service organisations plan to utilise different cloud vendors over the upcoming years. While having multiple cloud vendors can give organisations more flexibility and redundancy, managing multiple clouds can be a challenge. It can lead to cloud sprawl, unauthorised cloud use known as shadow IT, disjointed cloud solutions, inefficiencies, and waste.

Keywords: multicloud; healthcare; hybrid cloud; cloud environments.
