Absolutely fair; I wouldn't do anything less myself :)
If I may be somewhat mercenary and use the fact that I have you as a "testing the water" person hostage, what sort of stories/examples would be impactful to you? (Both as a MS employee and as a "I'd like to be better at understanding what moves the needle" in a general sense) I imagine "working, hardened proofs of concept and real e2e implementations" broadly, but if any scenarios/tech would stand out to you.
- rb808 9y agoI need a solution that makes it easy for front line support people to support multiple server applications. A consistent way to start, stop, tail log file, run some commands and maybe deploy. Ideally I'd like to hear that many big organizations already use Jupyter or some product to do this. Doesn't sound like its the case though.
- existencebox 9y agoFrom my perspective as someone who did ops for bigcos before I knew about jupyter: It's still a rather new tech. Runbooks, script libraries, CMSes, are still king for most sysop flows. I agree with and share your view of the promise that notebooks offer, but given the often lagging momentum of the biggest corps, I'd be surprised if one was already using a relatively new tech pervasively. (thus my "how do I motivate this change" question :P since I've certainly found value in it)
