Why it matters

After a few years, nearly every organisation that migrated discovers the same thing: the bill grows faster than the business. Not because the cloud is expensive, but because nobody switches off what is no longer used and nobody has the incentive to check.

What I look at in these announcements is portability. The more comfortable a platform is, the harder it usually is to leave, and that comfort gets paid for in negotiating power three years later, exactly when renewal comes up and there is no credible alternative left.

What usually goes wrong

What I see fail most is the literal migration. The system gets moved exactly as it was, nothing redesigned, and you end up paying hourly for what used to be paid once. It works the same, costs more, and two years later somebody asks why it was done. Lift and shift is not modernising.

What to watch

  • Where the data physically sits and what local regulation demands about that.
  • What happens when the provider has an outage, because it will, and what keeps running meanwhile.
  • Three-year total cost with real growth, not the first-year promotion.

How I read this entry

I would read it thinking about the exit before the entry. Not because anyone plans to leave, but because the conversation about how you would leave is the one that reveals how much you are locking in. If nobody at the table can describe that path, the dependency is already deeper than they think.

The original story is published in another language; the excerpt is quoted as the publisher delivers it and the commentary is written in English.
