Bryan Cantrill is a million times smarter than me so I'm probably missing something. I thought people bought into the enterprise cloud ecosystems because of cost savings elsewhere? If you go into a platform like AWS/GCP/Azure shouldn't you be designing your applications to take advantage of the flexibility in the wide range of services offered? If you don't need that and you're not buying into all the abstractions they provide, you could use any other cloud-lite (Vultr, OVH, Linode etc)?
Maybe I'm stuck in 2015 but are people really out here rolling their own clouds these days?
