> If you're using Terraform + modern config management tools I find it a breeze. I feel like this is a weak argument. Writing a back-end for a mobile app right now. I need a few CRUD calls, but I also need stuff to stay in real-time sync between users. So far I've been able to sprinkle magic cloud fairy dust on things, solve auth, solve concurrency, and deployment is super easy. I originally thought about doing it on a VPS. Then I realized I'd have to deal with a bunch of issues that I Just Don't Want To Deal With Right Now, especially since I am trying to get an MVP out ASAP to validate my idea. The various cloud providers all offer nice, well tested, SDKs to do all of the nasty/boring work for me, and a single call on my command line deploys everything.
