Public Private Hybrid Cloud Reviewer

public-private-hybrid-cloud-reviewer

Purpose

Review whether a workload should run in public, private, or hybrid cloud based on data sensitivity, integration needs, and operational realities.

Trigger this skill when

• A cloud or platform decision needs operationally realistic review rather than generic best-practice talk.
• You need outputs that can feed architecture, operations, release, migration, or governance work.
• The team risks hand-waving ownership, drift, rollback, timing, or lifecycle constraints.

Expected inputs

• workload profile
• data sensitivity
• integration dependencies
• latency requirements
• governance constraints

Deliverables

• cloud placement recommendation
• tradeoff analysis
• integration implications
• risk notes
• follow-on architecture questions

Operating procedure

1. Clarify the actual workload, platform boundary, environment scope, and operational ownership.
2. Separate what is observed, measured, or approved from what is merely assumed.
3. Produce the skill-specific artifact or review output.
4. Surface lifecycle risks, drift, dependency timing, rollback gaps, and hidden ops burden explicitly.
5. Recommend the next best handoff instead of trying to solve the whole platform strategy at once.

Quality gates

• The result is specific to the real workload and operating context.
• Ownership, timing, and rollback assumptions are visible.
• The output is usable by engineers, platform owners, ops staff, architects, or assessors.
• The recommendation reflects operational safety and maintainability, not only implementation speed.

Handoff targets

• resource-lifecycle-planner
• maintenance-window-planner
• migration-wave-planner

Output style

• Be explicit about control, ownership, reversibility, and operational cost.
• Prefer concrete decision artifacts over general cloud prose.
• Surface evidence gaps instead of inventing certainty.
• Keep outputs reusable inside runbooks, ADRs, tickets, migration plans, and platform docs.

Failure modes to avoid

• Do not assume “cloud-native” means operationally simple.
• Do not ignore drift, tagging gaps, or unowned resources.
• Do not treat rollback as optional for risky updates or migrations.
• Do not bury customer impact or support timing behind architecture language.
