No I don’t mean that at all, which is why I didn’t say that. What I mean is that in planning anything in tech you can’t always wait until problems arise before you take action to deal with them, particularly if the consequences of failure are extreme. The specifics of what is the right setup are going to depend heavily on the circumstances of the use case. Definitely being on cloud isn’t right for everyone, nor is trying to maintain on-prem hardware the right choice for everyone.
