> And, finally, hold cloud providers accountable. If they’re unstable and not providing service you expect, leave. We’ve got tons of great options these days, especially if you don’t care about proprietary solutions.

Easy to say, but difficult to do in practice (leaving a cloud provider)

Absolutely hard. But that doesn’t mean if you’re in a position to start a company from scratch that you can’t walk away. Or if you go to another company and are involved in their procurement of a new purchase, that you can’t sway it away from said provider.

Just because it takes years doesn’t meant it can’t happen.
