System administration traditionally refers to the following activities:
- Resource control (memory and CPU)
- Storage management
- Network configuration
- Maintaining configuration files and software management
- Documenting infrastructure
- Infrastructure automation
- Avoiding configuration drift
Many aspects of these activities are more easily managed in the cloud - depending on your specific use case, this comes either with cost savings or a heavy price tag.
