I'm testing changes to a process that uses Azure. We have dozens of on site SQL server dbs, but this one process decided to use Cosmos, because...they didnt have to writet as much code. The developer is gone, but I'm left supporting a process that sucks data down from its source, does a little transform, then shoves it into Cosmos. Then, pulls the data directly back from Cosmos to load it to our internal server dbs. Why?! It's a total facepalm to me. Extra stage, extra step and extra complexity and extra cost for no gain. We don't serve any external pages or services. No reason for this data to be in the cloud. All internal use. Fucking hate devs that do this, especially the ones that wander on before they have to justify their actions to anyone. /rant
