        It’s good for developing PoC where you don’t need to pay much to get going. But when you’re taking on a production level load it’ll be better to start thinking about having an on premise setup. BUT, if you’re scaling up to the point where you need to have your own data center with all of its baggage, you’re better off rolling with one of the cloud providers.

      This is way more true than people realize.

      AWS sounds amazing on paper and their marketing material is great. Once you get into the nitty gritty though things start to feel like everything is held together with string and chewing gum. Documentation is sparse, and often outright wrong. New services are implemented constantly but there is no one to talk to who can support them or knows anything about them. Features they claim are there simply…aren’t.

      It does indeed work, but it’s a frustrating service to use and it’s extremely expensive to boot.

      It’s quite possible. That said, I’ve done DevOps in a large, in-house DC with OpenStack, another one with VMware, then Azure, AWS, as well as bare metal at mom-and-pop DCs. AWS has been the best of the bunch by far.

      Yup. The core aws services are solid and fucking impressive, but the only reason most of their value added stuff gets any customers is because they use the core stuff.theye mostly horrible and expensive.

      Aws was amazing at first and the consistent UI makes it look clean, but it is a confusing mess imo.

      Azure came in and fixed some of the pain points but it is just as confusing and frustrating now. I think outsourcing the cloud still makes sense in a lot of cases but they really are nothing special these days.
      Serverless was a good step forward but had the same issues now that it is up and running.
      There are a ton of small competitors now that can have the same availability so the big players can gouge you less I think too.
