I hope this won’t be counted as some form of self-promotion, even though I am sharing a post from my own blog.
As a tech worker who works in a Cloud shop, I wanted to elaborate the many reasons why I find working with Clouds terrible, from multiple points of view.
I tried to organize my thoughts in a (relatively long) post, in which both technical aspects and political aspects (which are very related) are covered.
I am sure many people will have different perspectives, and this could be potentially also a nice prompt for a discussion.
Yes absolutely true. For example, GKE looks very nice, but when we use one of their features, it creates the need to use other features too. That’s why I warned the boss a lot. Even though they have great features, we try to use generic applications to avoid hooks.
I hope they don’t take the credit back :)
