Oversimplifying the cloud, it is subscribing to a company’s infrastructure to store and access your files; Microsoft in this example. And with this subscription model, you may also have access to some of their software services. Keep in mind that these files and services are accessed via the internet. But you are NEVER granted too much access to their infrastructure. Why is this important? Because YOU can’t break the cloud…
- “Hey, I’m trying to _____ with OneDrive for Business. Will it cause wrinkles for you?”
- Nope.
- “Yo, they’re working to build _____ in Azure. Can this run without bringing down the tenant?”
- Yep.
- “The migration team is transferring 5,000 sites this weekend. If I ___ while they’re working, will I break SharePoint Online?”
- Nope.
- “Can I do _____ in Microsoft Dynamics 365 without causing interruptions?”
- Yep.
- “The _____ flow in Power Automate keeps failing! Is that going to impact the performance of my other flows?”
- Nope.
- “My ___ folder in Outlook is full. Can I _____ it without bogging down Exchange?”
- Yep.
Conclusion:
Cloud solutions such as Azure, AWS, Box, etc. will grant you only so much power. And definitely not enough power to jeopardize their infrastructure. You can’t break the cloud because they won’t let you break the cloud…
