You see this is too complicated and "If you do it right" imply you can get it wrong and go bankrupt. I prefer to use dedicated server with dedicated bandwidth and Kubernetes on top of that. This makes me sleep comfortably at night. I tried the cloud and this was just too much anxiety for me to handle.
- StreamBright 7y agoYes, just like driving, if you doing it wrong you got to the hospital or die, if you doing it the right way you get from A to B. Personal responsibility does not go away because you are using the cloud.
- doingmyting 7y agoI find this example ironic. Car accidents got the term "accident" for a reason. There are many accidents where the person in question thought they were doing it right only to miss something and end up in the hospital e.g tire low on air, some engine part failing, brake failed in unexpected weather conditions etc. It's similar to the cloud in that respect. You think you got it right only to have some unexpected spike in traffic or some other event trigger weaknesses in the setup and end up costing you
- cc81 7y agoIt is absolutely not complicated compared to running Kubernetes yourself. You don't have to use serverless and infinite scaling. For things like Azure App Services you don't autoscale to start with and if you want autoscaling it looks like this: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platform/autoscale-get-started?toc=%2fazure%2fapp-service%2ftoc.json https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-monitor/platfor... You won't get many surprises there.
