costs Finances Developers • No significant changes System Admins • Eliminates toil associated with hardware. • Allows continued use of system configuration and optimization skills.
billing surprises Finances Developers • Might be environment differences that cause bugs. System Admins • Loss of control • Problems can occur in the space that they used to control but now don’t.
to cloud customer Discounts Unstable VM • Dramatically reduced cost • Resource isn’t guaranteed Custom VMs • Constrain resources to your processing need
• Sustained usage will tend to be more expensive then you might expect Finances Developers • Most serverless systems require a proprietary interface • Existing apps require work to migrate • Constraints in what kinds of other operation you can do • Constraints in runtimes. System Admins • Eliminates most systems toil • (Might be threatening if all of it gets replaced.)

usage Finances Developers • Easier to create microservices • Easier to isolate services from other service • Less constraints then serverless System Admins • Separates the code from the system almost entirely • Strongly encourages developer to write easily logged, monitored and dignosed applications
minimum cost Finances Developers • Microservices are great, until they aren’t and then they hurt. • Complexity System Admins • Containers tend to create additional layer of management • Complexity, complexity, complexity
host • GAE Flex • AWS has a thing • Azure has a thing • Other services Managed Container Hosting Managed Kubernetes • Provider runs Kubernetes for you, takes away a lot of complexity • Kubernetes Engine • AWS’s thing • Azure thing
