where everyone including engineering was beholden to old school IT departments that take months to spin up a VM after pages of bureaucratic back and forth. The cloud moves it from an IT issue to department budgeting.
My F500 company put a stop to that. There is new paperwork in place to requisition cloud resources. The bureaucracy will not be replaced.
- ndriscoll 2y agoEven the startup I worked at in my last job didn't let people just spin up whatever resources they felt like in AWS. Changes had to go through architecture/security review, and I might have been the only SDE who was allowed to log into AWS at all. We were subject to SOC 2, but I imagine it's relatively common for SaaS companies to have some kind of compliance framework assuming they want F500s as customers?
