I can't tell you how often I've run into cloud deployments that were lift-and-shifts, pushed on by bean counters wanting OPEX instead of CAPEX. They then run into actual cashflow expenses, less stability, more complex security (now you get IAM on top of basic networking!), and the ability for one underpaid person to easily do a lot of damage - because you're certainly not going to hire top-tier cloud talent - these are bean counters running things after all.
It makes it really clear why you so many data leaks via badly configured s3 buckets of dynamo tables...

- vel0city 2y ago> now you get IAM on top of basic networking! You always had IAM even on prem. Just before IAM meant admin:admin everywhere with domain admin creds for everyone and an NPS that nobody knew how to configure so they beat it with a wrench until things started working a decade ago. Ah, the good old days.
