You could also try to write modular software and use standardized interfaces to prevent vendor lock in. Haha who am i kidding...

The problem (outside of competence and the fact that most people only really understand one tool) is that they're deliberately architected in ways that make it difficult to operate on them the same way. They're not just different function calls; they want you to make completely different assumptions about how to do things.

Yeah but my boss told me I should use the magic API because it’s a panacea and will solve all of our problems.

But like idk. I feel like cost going down on physical items makes sense to a point. But I've hosted a few services and that shit got harder and more involved the longer it went on. Maybe that's just a skill issue tho. Love to hear your thoughts

I host an ever growing system in the cloud. Everything you build needs to be maintained and monitored, and the more users you have, the more features they demand.

You can still spread cost out across more users, but it's not like the software is just "done" and sits there being used

Thought it was interesting that no one mentioned Terraform or OpenTofu. Then checked the community I was in.
