And that is how much per month? A quick check with a well known company shows £350/mo. That sounds expensive, but on the other hand I'm not sure I would be leaving my security in hands of a $10/mo shop :)
- true_religion 11y agoKernel updates really ought to be an automated process at any company. At that point it doesn't really matter if you have 3 servers going for $350 or 49 servers going for $50 a pop.
- NetStrikeForce 11y agoYes, but you're not paying someone to just type "apt-get install"; you're paying someone to [1] avoid eventual mess as a result of that and [2] fast recovery if shit hits the fan. In other words, you don't pay them so much for what they do every day, but for what you don't really hope never happens.
