If you are not adopting native services specific to the hyperscaling cloud service provider you have adopted, you may be leaving money on the table, says TrueMark.
Billions of dollars and thousands of engineering years worth of effort from some of the brightest minds have gone into building resilient, well-architected and performant services offered by hyperscalers.
“The common argument we hear is that it’s expensive to move cloud providers and vendor lock-in is to be avoided at all costs. We argue that a cloud-agnostic approach will increase engineering effort, complexity and scope and this increases upfront costs and the opportunity cost of getting your changes to market. We also argue that these costs are equal to or greater than what you will pay to re-engineer for a cloud swap in the future.
“Both Amazon EC2 and Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service require more effort, time and engineering skill than leveraging services like AWS Elastic Container Service or Azure App Services,” continues Slabbert.“With Kubernetes specifically, you will have to implement node autoscaling patterns, ingress controller patterns, secrets management and cluster DNS, for example, which also have to be maintained, patched and monitored.
“You can speed up time to market when you can code and manage less to achieve complex outcomes. All AWS services have high-availability and fault tolerance designed into them, which means that you don’t have to architect these yourself.
