How to survive Cloud – An Ops perspective
summary
Describes moving a customer platform of 100 microservices into cloud-native operations, adopting managed Kubernetes and Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) while building missing pieces themselves. Teams build an urgent database cluster not offered as a managed service and automate backup/restore beyond provider snapshots. Collaboration shifts from isolated ops to mixed dev‑ops teams, legacy Oracle/ERP backends get retired (last backend server shut down), and platform automation and runbooks actually work.
