If your applications running on public clouds are not meeting expectations, you’re not alone. These are typically applications that were lifted and shifted to the cloud with little or no modernization or refactoring. This means they are not leveraging cloud-native services, such as infrastructure as code, serverless compute, cloud-native security, and cloud-native operations services.
During the massive push to the cloud in recent years, especially during the pandemic, thinking and planning went out the window. Moving fast was the order of the day, generally with the perception that just shifting apps to a public cloud provider would make many of the application issues go away. On the contrary, they mostly just amplified problems we had on-premises.
