That assumes the SaaS option doesn't also require some amount of ops. An assumption I wouldn't necessarily bet on when you start using SaaS from multiple providers to satisfy your various needs.
- StavrosK 11y agoSure, but SaaS generally require less ops. That's what you're paying for, in the end.
- LamaOfRuin 11y agoThat's what you're most often paying for now, but that's not a fundamental property of SaaS. It's a byproduct of the fact that most are built on open source products. If proprietary software companies like Oracle and Microsoft went purely SaaS for their business models (thinking of DB software here), you'd be paying just to get access to the software, in addition to any ops overhead benefits you also gained.
