Living the dream in the world of Windows Server Slowness.
Living in the dream in the world of Azure where everything is like Windows 95... Make a change, and reboot your VM, which takes somewhere beteween 5 and 15 minutes.
And the cost... Just... I can't even... [EDIT: Lots of Policticking involved above my pay grade].
Why you running VMs in Azure?
I imagine somebody higher up the totem pole heard the buzzwords "Cloud", "Azure", and "Microsoft" from the same person and they said, "Oh, we NEEEEEED this."
My boss is not happy about it at all, but they put some money towards it, so we have to use it at least for a couple more months. My boss is definitely interested in cloud-hosted stuff, but not with Microsoft, lol.
As to Why? It's hosting some stuff that integrates with our public web site (which will also likely wind up 'in the cloud' if things keep going the way they are now).
It wasn't a lot of Money, but my boss is tracking all our time for managing it and learning it to show the real cost of it. And the numbers ain't pretty at all... We spent 15 minutes waiting for a Server 2019 system to be restarted yesterday... I can't wait until the first Azure outage hits, lol.
I was thinking a lot of times, people spin up a VPS when they can actually go serverless. It's cheaper and more reliable, potentially.
Yeah. We have enough stuff here, that we could justify a full rack colo with our own gear and still come out light years ahead of the cost of what Azure would be.
We could probably use a VPS for quite a few things. We'll likely have some stuff in AWS for testing before the year is out as well.
That's not what I meant by serverless.
Interesting. I'll have to look into that.
Essentially just PaaS that we've had for a long time.

Paul just referred to Memorial Day Weekend's Friday Night as "amateur night". As in "amateur night for people to leave the house." Like amateur night in the most general sense possible, lol. Restaurants, bars, roads... all filled with the otherwise couch potatoes.
