Just because you "have no issues with productivity", doesn't necessarily mean that you couldn't be more productive. In my experience it takes a move to the cloud to actually see where those gains lie.
Disclaimer: I have no idea about your actual real-life situation. This is vague and hand wavy on purpose.

- mafro 8y agoIndeed it is not meant to be any kind of business justification - I clearly cannot comment your business and its needs :) In my experience of moving applications to the cloud, there are always folks who don't believe there is any gain to be made. These folks have always been wrong (so far!) I suppose I'm only commenting because I hate to see someone snub the potential of cloud. But hey I'm just some guy on HN.
- bartread 8y agoThe thing is, in previous positions we've used the cloud plenty, and it's been fine. But for what I'm doing now? No way. Just not the right fit. I therefore become extremely sceptical when people cite $unspecified_but_awesome_gains from switching.
- mafro 8y agoThat's awesome. Can you elaborate more on your setup, and why cloud doesn't make sense? I'm really interested in cases like this.
