Multi-account
Multi-account architecture is the practice of running workloads across several distinct cloud accounts (AWS accounts, GCP projects, Azure subscriptions) rather than one big shared account. It increases operational complexity and adds setup overhead. The reason it is the default for mid-to-large orgs is that the benefits compound in ways that single-account architectures cannot achieve.
