well it really depends.
guess what with k8s you can do a lot of stuff if you want the most simple high availability:
- regional clusters/multi-az, that most cloud offers
- single region/single az clusters, but still a combined load balancer
- multi cloud single region/single az, i.e. only target a single az
- multi cloud multi region/multi az
the thing is for many it might be simple to "use multi cloud single region/single az, i.e. only target a single az"
the biggest problem in these multi cloud setup is mostly not some orchestration that needs to happen on top, there are many tools that can do that. it's mostly how to have a backing store that supports it and how to have a load balancer that might not fail if cloud's go down.
