Cloud is Great but…
• Are API’s & UI’s enough?
• How will you manage across multiple accounts? Across AWS regions? Across multiple vendors?
• How will you distinguish interdependences between servers? What if there is a problem?
• How will you architect HA & DR?
• What happens if there is a failure with your cloud provider? With your AWS region?
• Can you quickly identify a faulty server, which subsequent servers have been affected and the root
cause?
• How will you control cost & usage?
• How will you breakdown costs to run a specific app? What about production vs. test & dev?
• How will you control access, security and audit changes?
• Is it truly automated?
• What steps are needed to perform provisioning & autoscaling? How will servers register with each
other? Need a sys admin?
• How are you alerted if there is an issue? Will your system self heal or sit idle? Need a sys admin?
• How will you incorporate private or multiple public clouds?
• How will you migrate your workload to/from clouds? Will you need to redesign?
• What are you doing to build future flexibility into your environment?
