"our connection to "the cloud" is only one DDoS away from being totally unusable."
Indeed.
I was of course joking about such a plan. AWS is fine for a proof of concept For a live system you'd need to run it on an on board server farmer.
The question is how easy will that migration be? Will be just a question of spinning up a copy of the environment or will it need to be rebuilt from scratch? The former makes the exercise worthwhile while the latter means they are virtually still at square one.
