In a cloud environment, I turn a few knobs and I can command an absurd amount of compute power, have it autoconfigured with all kinds of service discovery and whatnot. Things that would have taken weeks to months to build in a physical datacenter. Some people take that spare time to train as architecture astronauts I guess, and overcomplicate everything with all kinds of fiddly layers and microservices. I get it, it's fun to play with new toys. Doesn't mean the toys are bad, they're just not necessarily ready for production on day 1.
