Word of the day: prerogative πŸ“’ meaning: a special right or privilege to decide something πŸ“– use: The decision to go on-prem, cloud, or hybrid is a business prerogative, driven by strategy, budget, and compliance requirements. Confused about what β€œon-prem” and β€œcloud” mean? Here’s the easy version πŸ‘‡ 🏒 On-Prem -You own the servers. -You manage everything. -More control, higher upfront cost ☁️ Cloud -You rent servers online. -Provider manages the infrastructure. -Flexible, scalable, pay-as-you-go. πŸ”„ Hybrid A mix of both β€” control where needed, flexibility where possible. πŸ’‘ Think of it like this: On-Prem = Owning a house Cloud = Renting an apartment Hybrid = Owning a house but using shared services when needed There is no better option; just what fits the business. Are you learning cloud, or already working in it? #CloudComputing #LearningInPublic #DataEngineering
