- Lack of support for cloud provider hardware architecture (e.g., Gravitron)
- Additional configurations / 3rd party tools needed for patch management
- Longer boot times due to lack of cloud-specific optimizations
- Extra steps needed to set up monitoring agents / configurations
- Lagging cloud-native security integrations, requiring additional setup
- Manual tuning for optimal performance with cloud storage
- Lack of cloud-specific optimizations for network stack configurations
- Additional setup needed for optimal container performance in cloud environments
- Limited or generic cloud-init capabilities
- License management difficult to navigate
- Lagging update repository speed / security
- Complex pricing structure / purchase process
