You actually have to design your scaling and security configuration

Strengths

Overpaying 3X for constant workloads

Limited software flexibility Security tied to the platform No control over facility location Support for only what’s included

Developing Your Strategy

Too easy to get lost by:

• Overspending based on cloud hype • Locking into false choices • Spending valuable time on wrong details • Delayed thinking about scale & architecture • Not focusing on where you deliver value

It is critical to find the right home where your

application can grow economically!
