The only thing that is a problem is that one physical machine can still handle 10 times the spike of "vcpu" which is shared between multiple customers. For much lower price. Very strong computers are available for real bargain but nooo, lets use the cloud. Its a buzzword so it needs to be good
It is funny that no one used the most realistic "excuse". That you just have no clue how to do it (install, setup software) and as you cant do it yourself, you need to hire someone. This is the only case where google does make sense. It is path into idiocracy as you will be able to do less and less yoursel with outsourcing know-how (we didnt learn anything from past China expiriences right?), but we wont worry too much about it too much about it, untill then you will all be zillionaires and it will no longer matter.
- dna_polymerase 7y agoThe online shop was an easy enough example. I could have talked about research projects using thousands of machines for a few hours per experiment. Maybe you understand that holding thousands of machines for effectively using them once in a while doesn't make much sense. But hey, being judgmental towards a whole industry running large portions of the web is way more fun.
