I was looking for the explanation about how this grouping is like the OSI model, but found none...
Also, I think where OP uses "principal" they mean "principle".
The whole article reads as an advertorial for Pulumi. :|
OP also never bothers to ask themselves questions like "what if I'm wrong?" or "what to do with this obvious claim that doesn't add up?".
For example: why is "Data" layer below "Compute"? -- that's the kind of question that's never addressed by OP. I mean, most people in the industry wouldn't think about this as being layers, and definitely not being one on top of the other. To convince someone you need to give a very solid argument here... but there's nothing there...
- icedchai 3y agoLayers 4 through 6 make some conceptual sense if you consider the lower layers being support/infrastructure for the higher layers. In the old days, before cloud, we used to draw plenty of diagrams that were essentially DB Server -> App Server -> Web Server -> Load Balancer... it's the same kind of thing. I say some sense because layer 3 "permissions" sticks out to me like a sore thumb. Whenever I work with terraform I spend 50% of the time on permissions. I'd hesitate to call it a "layer" given the pervasive nature of IAM roles/permissions across all resources.
- paulddraper 3y agoBecause (1) the layers build progressively more sophisticated upon more basic layers (2) there are 7....well 8, but it starts at layer 0. I guess
- jen20 3y agoBecause the “data” layer covers entirely managed services…
- drewcoo 3y ago> explanation about how this grouping is like the OSI model Because there are 7 of them, just like the toes on your left foot, one eye, and your right thumb? It didn't make sense to me either. And seemed like an ad.
