I know I am underpaid.
I know I am underappreciated.
I know I am kept out of the loop for many things in the place I work at.
But even so, I am not putting our customer's data into any cloud or somebody else's infra. Nuh-uh. No trust - no business. I will die on that hill.
Context of this is that Grafana OnCall is moved to maintenance mode in favour of their cloud IRM solution - and next year, OnCall will be archived/EOL'd. Since we use Grafana and OnCall heavily to monitor customer infrastructure top to bottom with clients and SNMP pullers, we have a crapton of data...yes, even the individual clients. I am /not/ putting this anywhere else but on-premise. And since I am the only guy that CAN manage the OnCall and Grafana installation, I am going to be the noodle making a decision - even if somebody else over there is probably already gawking at some other cloud solution with wet pants.
I have my principles - and I intend to stick to them.
Fuck the cloud.
With a big, massive, dick.
