Requires you to focus on both your application and your hosting
Low economies of scale
Support comes from Google search
You actually have to design your scaling and security configuration

Works best when combined with some expertise
Scale on a per-server basis; requires foresight and lead-time
Limited control over facility location
Can be some trouble for start-ups

Flexible costing Scalability built-in Easy to get started Lets customer focus on
application No systems expertise required
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!
