Locked DevOps Strategies

01 Apr 2024  |  cacm.acm.org  |  English  |  Cloud Computing

The article explores the concept of vendor lock-in in cloud computing, where organizations become dependent on a single cloud provider's tools and services, making it difficult to switch providers. It contrasts vendor-locked solutions with cloud-agnostic designs, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of each. Vendor lock-in allows for highly integrated solutions and specialized talent but can limit flexibility and increase transition costs. Cloud-agnostic designs offer cost control and disaster recovery benefits but require more expertise and can face limitations in strategic IT goals. The article advises stakeholders to carefully consider their cloud strategy to align with organizational goals and avoid potential setbacks.
