On: “Lambda and serverless is one of the worst forms of proprietary lock-in” (2017)

Gitlab.com did a switch from azure to GCP so it is realistic.

[luka-birsa → ndnxhs]

We had to migrate ~100 instances from Azure to GCP. It took us one month. At the end of the month we changed the dns entries and flipped the switch.

Its true tho that we never wanted to work with managed services, so there was literarly no need to redo any of the tooling.
