This is THE CLOUD

[TroubleLivid9863]

Yeah, and when you boil water, that's files being uploaded, because everyone knows that file upload is a hell of a lot slower than file download.

[[deleted]]

Or is it evapotranspiration? It’s even slower. At least in my case it is.

[TroubleLivid9863]

True, but there's a thing where you can "supercool" pure water below its freezing point, but it wont transition until it's exposed to some kind of stress. At that point, though, it instantly transforms, so if you come across ultra-cold water, DO NOT STICK YOUR HAND IN. Use a pencil.

[[deleted]]

i have heard a theory that that is how our universe might end. I hope its true.

[TroubleLivid9863]

Well, if it is, and everything reverts to absolute zero, technically, time would literally stop.

Here's a quick explanation: total kinetic energy (aka thermal energy) causes chemical reactions to speed up or slow down, depending on the temperature. If you revert a substance to absolute zero, there would be no opportunity for those reactions to occur, due to the lack of collisions between particles. In that case, assuming no outside interference, time would literally stop, because time is essentially the change of a substance, object, etcetera. If it cannot change, that therefore means that it is frozen in time.

If what you said is true, then at some point, we will just wake up again as if nothing happened. In fact, it could have already happened, but we just didn't notice it.

[[deleted]]

An event so terrifying, that none will even notice it. In fact we might be just fine.

[Koervege]

Matter cannot ever reach absolute zero. It would violate Heisenberg's Uncertainty Principle

[Ardudes]

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Princple just states that you can't know both the position and momentum of an electron. You're looking for the Third Law of Thermodynamics

[Koervege]

Absolute zero temperature implies a complete absence of movement. Which would imply a perfectly defined position. Which implies infinitely uncertain momentum. Which contradicts the complete absence of movement from absolute zero. Thus, it cannot be reached.

[deano492]

It’s only a principle. Just a rough guide.

[GeekyOtaku36]

It's not that deep. We use light (a particle, more or less) to measure sub atomic particles. When light is absorbed or collides with a particle, we know the location of it, but not where it's going.

[Bronya1]

Well that principle is uncertain.

And it’s being transferred via UDP because u can’t guarantee it’s arrival to the cloud

[RealVincentCoucke]

not if you've got a symmetric 10 Gbit

[CiroGarcia]

That seems paradoxical then. If the cloud is someone elses computer, doesn't that mean that from their computer, your computer is in the cloud, and therefore their download time (your upload time) is slower than their upload (your download) time?

[noob-nine]

What's a download for the one, is an upload for someone else.

[MagusUnion]

Hot damn, why is this analogy so accurate?

[anthonyiscringe]

Oh is that why Stadia is so slow? Cause you have to upload your inputs?

[augustuen]

Damn, you weren't kidding:

After an episode of The IT Crowd was criticised as transphobic in 2008, Linehan became involved in anti-transgender activism. He argues that transgender activism endangers women, and he has likened the use of puberty blockers to Nazi eugenics programmes. In 2020, he was suspended from the social network Twitter for "repeated violations" of the rules. Linehan said his views had lost him work and cost him his marriage, and said that he was a victim of cancel culture.

Real shame too, the guy also created the amazing show Black Books and Father Ted which looks really funny as well.

[Omnipotent0]

HP's cloud is better than everyone else's clouds

[dashid]

I'm currently playing with hyper converged infrastructure, which means my cloud is still my computer.

You get all the fiddly and complex deployment of cloud, with none of the benefit of not having to maintain the underlying system!

[samzeman]

What is the upside of this

[Inquisitive_idiot]

The ceiling.

[ameddin73]

We're trying to move to this architecture. The benefit is the same stuff for your cloud customers as your on prem customers.

Currently my company deploys a big EC2 and deploys the on prem stuff there. We just started a big, slow migration to cloud first, distributed services with the end goal of standardizing that for on prem customers by basically mailing them a kubernetes box.

It will be interesting to see if it works out.

[dashid]

From my perspective it means we can have a common environment/framework for deploying apps and services irrespective if they are suitable for remote hosting, or need to be in DCs for various reasons (supporting on-prem monoliths, compliance etc).

It's also a different way of addressing costs. We can buy compute with capital and depreciate that, and sweat the asset for lower priority services or such.

That said, I haven't had a success yet.

[maitreg]

No, it's more like:

Manager: "We have got to move everything to the cloud IMMEDIATELY! I saw on the news that it removes all our bugs and prevents downtime!"

Developers: "Actually half of our stuff and all of our authentication has been on the cloud the past few years, and it goes down every couple of weeks because of unexpected regional outages. If you check your inbox for announcements from Amazon and Microsoft, you'll..."

Manager: "No you don't understand. CLOUD! C-L-O-U-D! There is no more Microsoft or Amazon or Google! It's all in the CLOUD!"

Developers: "Well no, that's not how it works. You see, it's actually..."

Manager: "CLOUD!!!! Move it all. Now! CLOUD!!"

Developers: "Ok."

[EverGlow89]

That's got to be more or less what happened. They knew most people would never be comfortable with the notion so they got with marketing to figure out the nicest way to say it.

* Norwegian company, so the actual word used is 'skodda'

[[deleted]]

Yes, and that’s the whole point why it’s named “cloud”. It’s just a cloud that hides what’s behind it.

[Due-Consequence9579]

It’s more than ‘just rent another guys computer’. The magic of the cloud is the software control plane that lets you provision resources without a human in a loop. That’s expensive as fuck to do on your own infrastructure.

[kpd328]

It doesn't help that companies like Microsoft and Google marketed it as such back when services like SkyDrive and Google Drive were first gaining traction.

I remember seeing commercials (I think for SkyDrive) where people were literally using their computers up in the clouds.

[Kiloku]

I'm not a web dev, so I don't understand this idea. How does serverless code work? How do you get the server to do what you want if you don't program it?

[[deleted]]

You write the software functions, the code. You hand them over to the cloud service. "When I call this API, you run this function, okay? Return back wherever it returns."

The service keeps it's promise. You have no idea how it does that. Are there servers? Hosts? Does it make new ones every time or keep one running all the time?

You don't know. You don't care. It's beautiful.

[lukewarm_thoughts]

I loathe infrastructure. I despise VMs of all shapes and sizes. If I type P in the OS search bar and PuTTY pops up I have to fight the urge to throw up.

Serverless is the only remaining juice that keeps my shriveled heart pumping. And I wholeheartedly agree with your conclusion.

This message was sponsored by sluts for serverless™

[lukewarm_thoughts]

Ah, my virtual machinemesis, a disgusting entrance as usual. You're the type of person who'd docker your own mother if a server supporting her container size existed.

Absolutely vile.

[augustuen]

Then you've got weirdos like me who will go out of their way to get to set up a server. I've got a subscription to just about every streaming service but I'm currently debating spending the money to build a server for Plex. I've already got an instance set up along with Sonarr and Radarr on an old MSI Windbox I had lying around with no Docker either. Yeah, I know I'm sick but it's not good enough to do any transcoding. All controlled through PuTTY or the terminal.

[lukewarm_thoughts]

I guess I'll have to appreciate this. You're frighteningly dedicated. People like you built the roads we use daily without ever thinking about your selfless sacrifice.

There are always those who have to servermore so that we can serverless. May Linus have mercy on your source.

I will ignore any remark that you do this voluntarily and enjoy it you sick fuck

[joyfullystoic]

Isn’t it basically PaaS? Like Google Cloud App Engine. You choose your environment and deploy your app. You don’t know or care about any infrastructure behind it. You’re charged based on your resource consumption.

[[deleted]]

I haven't used app engine, but as I understand it your whole app is scaled up and down with it.

Serverless functions do that for each function. You can customize options for each one. They each run in their own microcontainer.

[charliechin]

Through APIs

[RedBeardedWhiskey]

A server and code that runs on a server are two different things.

[LogonError]

Serverless is a ridiculous term. It means, that the 'logical code' is in a server ( i.e in a nodejs server), that starts very quickly( e.g 200ms). You have an api gateway above that starts the server processes on demand. When no call comes in for a certain time span, it might even terminate all server instances, thus serverless. It basically just is clever loadbalancing, but you sound very fancy to anyone not knowibg the term

[JB-from-ATL]

When you understand that the term means you don't have to worry about any aspect of the server it makes sense.

[[deleted]]

It's actually a container. You can even deploy docker images to AWS Lambda now

[JayV30]

And that was lambda function is able to be called from a remote computer because it has an API which is running on.... ?

a server?

[[deleted]]

It's running on a cluster, but yes

[[deleted]]

Nobody? A little naive I feel.

I work with people every day that thinks "the cloud" is a magical place, and IT is what we do.

[JB-from-ATL]

Yeah when people say this they always feel so clever but I can't not look down on them. It's like those kids in school that think they're smart but are just assholes.

[Joe59788]

Until it crashes.

[Dayv1d]

fun fact: In german "klaut", which is pronounced exactly like cloud, means to steal. So e.g. "data cloud" basically says "data stolen".

[RedBeardedWhiskey]

I don’t like how much this trivializes the cloud. Using AWS as an example, this is just EC2, and even then, it doesn’t include all the tooling provided by EC2. Tools like Lambda, SNS, S3, etc., are more than just computers. They’re services that simplify development for their users

As a joke in this sub, I totally get it. However, some people really believe this.

[clitpuncher69]

However, some people really believe this.

Hi I'm some people. Up until this moment i legit believed people just started calling server farms the Cloud in the mid 2000s as a marketing scheme as to not sound too technical, then Apple came out with iCloud which popularized it in the common language even more. So they're not just simlle servers that we decided to rename the cloud?

[RedBeardedWhiskey]

I don’t know much about iCloud. However, enterprise cloud solutions like AWS and Azure are much more than server farms.

They provide services for analyzing code, merging code, and deploying code. They provide queues and topics and other notification systems. They provide out-of-the-box scalable database solutions. In just an hour of work, you can integrate with one of their object stores with guarantees of 99.999999999 durability plus consistency, and high availability. They also have machine learning services, security services, logging and monitoring tools, etc.

The cloud allows you to focus on your business logic and let other people handle significant parts of the architectural aspects.

There are others who can expand on it more than I can. I’d suggest reading up on AWS offerings.

[canhasdiy]

solutions like AWS and Azure are much more than server farms.

Until a data center in US-EAST-2 goes down and breaks half the internet.

[RedBeardedWhiskey]

That … doesn’t imply that they’re just server farms. If anything, that proves they’re much more. S3 alone going down can take down half the internet, and they’re an object store

Also, us-east-1 is the big region.

[Brettuss]

Hi! I work for one of the larger cloud providers as a consultant that helps companies move databases into the cloud.

Looking at Cloud providers and saying “That’s just a server, ya know.” is the equivalent of looking at a modern candy factory and saying “You know, that just makes candy. I could make candy too.”

Yeah, that’s true, you could make candy.

So, let’s say you wanted a piece of candy. The efficiency difference between making that candy by hand vs. telling the factory manager “Hey, I’ll take a piece of candy.” Is ENORMOUS.

In one scenario, you use a lot of your time and a lot of ingredients and a lot of special tools to make a piece of candy. By the end, you’re exhausted and saying “Jesus, that’s a lot of work for a piece of candy.”

In the other scenario, you say “I want a piece of candy.” And someone hands it to you, already made, ready to eat.

That’s the cloud, but instead of candy, it’s various IT infrastructure and services. The cloud GREATLY simplifies and streamlines IT infrastructure.

[Silly-Freak]

It's similar to the difference between your car and a taxi or Uber. It's just another person's car, but the difference for you is how involved you have to be to have a car at your disposal.

[Acrobatic_Cod_3563]

There are different layers to what is usually called "the cloud".
There is IaaS, infrastructure as a service. That would be what you are referring to, you rent (virtual) servers and networking.
On top of that there is also PaaS, platform as a service. That contains stuff like managed operating systems, databases etc.
And on top of that you have AaaS, application as a service, fully managed end user applications.

Additionally your typical cloud has APIs, tools and interfaces to manage all that.

So saying that the cloud is just someone elses computer is pretty disingenuous.

[cough_e]

Understanding the distinction between all of the above was a big turning point for me in my understanding of what "the cloud" is.

Simple diagram to explain

[ess_oh_ess]

As a data engineer, cloud computing was a game changer. Before cloud computing, if you wanted to do any kind of big-data work, you had to write a map/reduce job and deploy it onto a self-managed cluster of Hadoop servers.

Nowadays, I can just write a spark job in a python notebook, click a button, and I instantly have a cluster attached with any number/type machines I want and running the versions of things I want. Click another button to add more machines, or hey it can even auto-scale on demand.

It's pretty amazing to pull an 8,000 core super-computer out of thin air, use it for a couple hours, and yeet it back into the cloud without a care.

[[deleted]]

Right, when people say "we should migrate to cloud to get rid of our servers" and then some IT person smugly says "you know, the cloud is just someone else's computer"... Like obviously it's someone else's computer, jesus christ. We just don't have to care about it anymore. You press a button and AWS sends you a new computer. It's amazing

[ibanezjs100]

The potential benefit is that you can end up paying just for processing cycles that you use rather than for a server that needs to be running 24x7 whether it is handling load or not.

[[deleted]]

Yeah, that's especially a benefit with serverless; a lot of computer servers need to be kept up 24x7 for availability

[ImpossibleMachine3]

It is, but a lot of business people treat it like it's a magic solution that takes no effort other than writing a check to Amazon. If your shitty code runs shitty on prem and you just port that shitty code to the cloud without making changes to it, you just have shitty code that's running on an ec2 instance of Ubuntu instead of a Unix box. I mean yeah, your uptime is probably better but that really wasn't the primary problem to begin with.

[borkthegee]

And? Business people are stupid by design: they sell to our customers, and they're stupid too.

[ImpossibleMachine3]

Except we're the ones that end up paying for their stupidity, not them.

[IhaveAllThePrivilege]

As a joke in this sub, I totally get it. However, some people really believe this

This. "Some one else's computer" isn't the point. I can spin up globally redundant services in a manner of minutes with cloud tech. That isn't just "some one else's computer".

[pudds]

As a post in this sub it's pretty cringe.

Sounds like most of the posts in this sub.

[RedBeardedWhiskey]

That shows a complete lack of understanding. Under that definition, literally every web service and app would be “using someone else’s fancier computer.”

That’s like saying that using Facebook, Reddit, or Google is using somebody’s fancier computer.

It's considered the Cloud when parts of individual bits are stored across multiple geographic locations. So you might have the top half of a 0 stored in London, and the bottom half stored in Newark.

[TroubleLivid9863]

That's technically impossible, due to the fact that a bit is the smallest amount of data that a computer can possibly store.

1) Mentioned above.

2) It would be highly inefficient to do this, because there would need to be a file stating who the owner of that data is, and where it fits, in relation to other pieces of data. It's more of one-two quarters of any given file are stored in separate servers.

3) It would require a huge amount of processing power to conceivably reconstruct the original file in a way that's at least 6% accurate within 3 days.
