RT @rakyll: No one wants to manage servers unless they are having a production issue and all of their stuff is running on a black box.
Replying to @mpchlets and @rakyll
I am a huge fan of managed services, but tend to make very specific choices about which cloud provided services we use versus ones over which we try and maintain more control. If it's very critical, I don't want to have to tell my customers to check someone else's status page.
Replying to @mpchlets and @rakyll
I meant a critical component of my business, not whether the business itself is considered critical. If I blow through my SLA because, LOL, cloud service X is down, *shrug* absolutely nothing I can do here, then shame on me.

I spend my engineering tokens on expertise in the areas that are critical for my business, rather than relying on someone else to hopefully spend theirs wisely. Case in point: Aurora.

RT @kevinbehr: outsourcing work is not the same as outsourcing risk.
Been reading Walkable City and came across the concept of "induced demand" where widening the road makes traffic slower. Terrific parallel to not limiting WIP which actually gets LESS work through the system. Going into my next #DevOps talk for sure!
