I printed one of these to make use of some underutilized space on a Subaru Forester the other day. Printing with PA12-CF was overkill but I already had it loaded in the AMS. I almost started to model something from scratch but found someone else had already done it, saving me from reinventing this wheel

“Which is less expensive: cloud-based infrastructure-as-a-service, or maintaining our own servers on-prem?” This is the wrong question.

Don’t decide on cost.

When choosing cloud versus on prem, choose based on the business use case, functionality, and security. Then pay for the best design, either way.

Does your business have unpredictable swings in size? Do you need to be able to add more servers rapidly and then shed those servers after the rush is over? Then cloud services make sense.

Is your data in a high-risk and well-known category, frequently/constantly under attack? Then maintaining your own servers with access exclusively through dedicated data circuits makes sense.

There are other design options, including hybrid architectures.

Information processing, storage, and access should be designed based on core needs, not cost.

A thought I had...

I like the blog post behind this and how to design complex pipelines as a stack of generators.
