Low-code is not a cure for overworked IT departments

Yep, the auto-generated stuff is a nightmare to understand. I've found it hard even switching from the old monolith architecture to the new Cloudformation stuff. But maybe I'm just stupid

No, I believe the cloud stuff has evolved in a way that is just strange. I know I'm not stupid, and I look at this stuff with suspicion. This is why I'm going vertical by owning my entire stack (except Amazon S3 because it is awesome...)

Could replace S3 with a self hosted Minio instance?

You can, but S3 has a special place in my heart as I worked there. I know a lot of the deep details.

I wish it was cheaper, but I can leverage it well.

I think it's just idiosyncrasies of one system create idiosyncrasies in next system that uses it.

Nobody would design it like that from scratch but having only already existing stuff to build on makes the end result more complex that the problem it solves requires
