Use it when deployment control, auditability, and portability are primary requirements.
Skip if the team cannot own patching, monitoring, and incident response.

Skip if the project lacks a tested upgrade or rollback path.
Self-hosting teams
Evaluate it when running the service in your environment is a deliberate ownership decision.
Skip if a zero-operations SaaS experience is non-negotiable.
