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.

I separate what moves for cost from what moves for capability. Migrating to save money almost never works; migrating to be able to do something you could not do before does. When the argument is only savings, it is worth checking the numbers again because they are usually incomplete.

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

  • Three-year total cost with real growth, not the first-year promotion.
  • How hard it would be to leave or move a piece to another provider, which is future negotiating power.
  • Who sees the bill and in what detail: with no owner for the spend, the spend grows on its own.

How I read this entry

If this fed into an infrastructure decision, I would ask for the three-year total cost with real growth built in, not year one with the entry discount. Most cloud surprises live in year two, when the discount ends and the volume has already gone up.
