I was asked to review a multi-cloud architecture proposing to add several code repositories, multiple cross-cloud ETL pipelines, scalable big-data clusters, several and web and API apps -- with API management, of course! Some, but not all of that, was to be hosted on multiple Kubernetes clusters. All of that for a project being implemented by one developer to generate one report. My alternative solution was adding a single index and a PowerBI connector to the existing database. They didn't like that and went with the original approach. I didn't hear back.
