This doesn't appear to be about Microsoft's cloud but rather Public Cloud.
The whole migration of LinkedIn from their own data centers to the public cloud (Microsofts) isn't going well.
It appears they are still going to operate on-premise for many things. Some things moving or have moved to the public cloud.
Isn't this more a shot at the public cloud for all the things than to any specific one?
- that_guy_iain 3y agoI don’t see anything that points to it being a general public cloud issue. And instead they talk about Azure software specifically as something that they couldn’t take advantage of, no?
- mlhpdx 3y agoI would not assume that it is a specific Azure problem from that statement. Many, many teams struggle to take advantage of cloud infrastructure because of habits and knowledge retained for operating the existing systems. It’s possible given what they have, I t’s simply best to keep it on premise - at least to some degree. That would likely not be true with a successful re-architecture, but not everyone is up for that.
- mfer 3y agoIt may not be about the teams. For example, when you control the data center you can do certain things around performance and scale you can't do in a public cloud. There are so many unknowns about how things are setup that it's hard to know.
