How does this skill help avoid vendor lock-in?

It provides specific patterns for cloud-agnostic abstractions using standardized tools like Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, and S3-compatible APIs, ensuring your infrastructure isn't tied to a single provider's proprietary services.

Which cloud providers are covered in the comparison tables?

The skill provides detailed, side-by-side comparisons for the three major providers: Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP).

Can I use this for cross-cloud cost comparison?

Yes, it includes frameworks for comparing pricing models like reserved capacity, savings plans, and spot instances across AWS, Azure, and GCP to help optimize your infrastructure spend.

Does it support specific Infrastructure as Code (IaC) tools?

The skill emphasizes Terraform and OpenTofu as the primary abstraction layers for managing resources consistently across different cloud provider APIs.
