We have been on the cloud before... it's not an upgrade for UNIX.COM and our server.

Moving UNIX.COM to "the cloud" would be a downgrade, at least based on my experience.

And in closing moving to the cloud would not provide UNIX.COM:

This I know as a fact from years of experience.
Cheers.

I am sorry if I ever gave you the impression that I was somewhat inferring that you or UNIX.COM should be in the Cloud. My post was prompted as a personal opinion following in the same spirit of bakunin's post #9. It was not even a response to his comments but rather a conversational comment based on my experience.

You validate my commentaries. If you do not CI/CD you do not need the Cloud, otherwise your experience might not be what you expected. And this is common with a lot of customers.

Originally, I asked you about the Cloud and unix.com based on the hero effort you have to do to move to another datacenter. You responded why not and that was it for me concerning the matter and I gave you thanks for responding me, I did not engage you any more about that response.
