I've managed fleets on cloud providers with over 100k instances, even with all the excellent features through APIs, managing instances can quickly get tricky.

Tbh, your comment is kind of insulting and belittles how far we've come ahead in infrastructure management.
The cloud is probably more secure than a set of janky servers that you have running in your basement. You can totally automate away 0-days, cves and get access to better security primitives.
- johnklos 2y agoIf my comment is insulting, I apologize. That was not my intention. My intention was to say that writing sales speak in a technical discussion is insulting to those of us who know better. However, you've now gone out of your way to try to be insulting. You know nothing about me, yet you want to suggest that the cloud is more secure than my servers, and that my servers are "janky"? Please try a little harder to engage in reasonable discourse.

Your janky cloud[0] is less secure than the servers in my basement, because I'm a mostly competent sysadmin. Cloud lets you trade some operational concerns for higher costs, but not all of them. [0] If you can assume servers run by somebody who doesn't know how to do it properly, obviously I can assume the same about cloud configuration. Have fun with your leaked API keys.
