Why it matters

The cloud conversation moved from migrate everything to deciding what goes where. That maturity is a good sign, but it also makes the discussion harder: there is no single answer any more, it has to be argued case by case, and very few people have the numbers to do it.

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

The mistake that repeats is not sizing egress traffic. The numbers get done on compute and storage, which are the visible ones, and the surprise arrives with data transfer. It is the line on the bill I have most often seen dismantle a well-built business case.

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

What I would install alongside any move to the cloud is the discipline of switching things off. Tag everything by owner, review monthly what is running unused, and give somebody the authority to turn it off. Without that, waste eats the promised savings within two years.
