Group 2

Compute capacity is tied to people and laptops

The company buys resources for individual employees but cannot reallocate idle capacity, cover a local shortage, or scale the task queue.

Group 2 conclusion

Compute cannot be directed where it is needed

Personal shortages coexist with paid idle capacity, while parallelism is constrained by individual laptops. Resources are distributed among subscription and machine owners, not across the company’s task queue.

Running example · AI review

Review runs should draw compute from a shared queue: a heavy independent check can run on an available runtime instead of waiting for the pull request author’s personal quota to reset.
