Well, I should have probably distinguished between IaaS ans PaaS, but primarily intended to differentiate between either of these and the GP's advocacy of on-prem or colo.
That is, I would advocate PaaS and IaaS over on-prem/colo, and how far you go towards PaaS is a matter of comfort.
I do think that comes down to control though, and I actually can't think of a much better basis for the decision.
- mercer 9y agoAh, right. so a VPS or even a dedicated server would be considered IaaS?
- unclebucknasty 9y agoPossibly. I think the line runs along how the resources are exposed. That is, if they are literally manageable as a service (e.g. via API or management console), then yeah. No expert on the terminology here, though. Just how I understand the term.
