I've noticed most of these anti-cloud articles omit this exact point consistently. So we'll replace "the cloud" with docker compose! Because apparently docker compose just spins up resources ex nihilo.
There's also often the contrived assumption that "the cloud" means a bunch of huge bills because you automatically launch every service available and run them constantly. Also you run the largest instances because reasons.
- snoman 3y agoWhen people provision resources in the cloud in the same way they provision resources on-premises, they tend to massively over-provision.
