Conference: Code BEAM America 2022

Year: 2022

This video was recorded at Code BEAM America 2022 - https://codebeamamerica.com/ When the Cloud s Reign is Over | Nicholas Adams - Head of Global Support @ TI Tokyo ABSTRACT Cloud Computing is great. It gives you practically instant scalability with no need for a large infrastructure team and guaranteed up times, plus the ability to try scaled-down versions of your projects at negligible costs before investing in major infrastructure. So it came as a surprise to me to discover that, after a certain tipping point, cloud computing is actually horrendously cost-ineffective! We’re not talking a few hundred dollars here, we’re talking up to double the IT budget you’d be paying to run the majority of your systems in-house. That doesn’t even include any in-direct cost-savings such as reduced legal fees from simpler regulatory compliance! It turns out that GDPR and similar laws also become surprisingly simple when your customer’s data is physically located on servers you control. Join me for this talk to hear a few examples and a couple of options to move from someone else’s computer to one of yours! OBJECTIVES: To make people aware that the cloud is not the be all and end all of production systems. To give people an idea of when they should start looking at migrating away from the cloud for cost benefits. AUDIENCE: Anyone from dev-ops and sys-admin all the way up to CTO or CIO level • Timecodes 00:00 - 01:57 - Intro & Content 01:58 - 05:59 - Early Cloud Days 06:00 - 10:11 - Whose Cloud is it Anyway? 10:12 - 19:31 - What is Actually Going On? 19:32 - 26:01 - Wrap Up & QnA • Follow us on social: Twitter: https://twitter.com/CodeBEAMio LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/27159258 • Looking for a unique learning experience?
