I'm wondering on how efficient this all is

I see a number of layers added to running an application here which strikes me as adding to stack complexity and operational overhead. Has anyone done a compare between a service on a platform and one that appears to be running through various interpreters/emulators?

I accept this may save bodies if you have a large number of these services to run, but it would be nice to find out a cross-over point - and efficiency counts towards the whole ecological aspect.

(note: I'm a newbie when it comes to cloudy stuff but oldtimer when it comes to make things work that must. not. fail. - usually because it would cost lives otherwise - so I'm looking at cloud services only in the context of "stuff we won't miss when it falls over" :) )
