Making choices about cloud technology without deep design knowledge or architectural expertise leads to escalating long-term problems, especially for companies that hire low-cost .NET development agencies to save money upfront. This technical debt worsens over time and costs companies three to ten times more to fix than the initial software development. Extremely low-cost .NET developers frequently deliver applications as a single, large unit (monolithic applications) that cannot scale to support growth. This forces clients to completely rebuild the software (re-architecture) soon after release. Vendor lock-in adds further risk: you become overly dependent on a single cloud provider such as AWS, Azure, or GCP. When applications perform poorly, these performance bottlenecks are usually caused by poor application architecture too. To avoid these risks, companies should work with development firms that can demonstrate specialized expertise in cloud-native architecture.
