All pods run the same version of the application and are managed to a single version, all are updated within 30 days All pods are managed centrally as if they were one system with strong system and network management tools Pods are not more expensive than a single system Pods have many advantages 1. performance: we move the load across many instances 2. availability: if we lose a pod, all others are available 3. scalability: we can scale a pod for any specific requirements 4. single tenancy: we can put customers on their own pods with their own maintenance windows and upgrade slots Steve, I want to make sure that your comments about our architecture are accurate.

Pods are not more expensive than a single system
Pods have many advantages
1. performance: we move the load across many instances
2. availability: if we lose a pod, all others are available
3. scalability: we can scale a pod for any specific requirements
4. single tenancy: we can put customers on their own pods with their own maintenance windows and upgrade slots
