The phrase "migrate later" is often the most expensive decision in cloud strategy.

The most deadly trap in cloud computing is directly applying past availability metrics. Yesterday's stability does not guarantee tomorrow's, as infrastructure environments are constantly evolving, and assumptions can never keep up with reality.

Solutions like Flux emerged precisely because infrastructure risks can silently accumulate. You might not notice until suddenly everything crashes. That’s why fault tolerance mechanisms and real-time monitoring are never optional when planning system architecture—they are upfront costs to prevent catastrophic costs later.
