I think you may be correct and my information was out of date. According to the strategy documents that Gitlab publishes they seem to have changed direction towards growth via SaaS: https://about.gitlab.com/strategy/#sequence- https://about.gitlab.com/strategy/#sequence- """ During phase 2 there is a natural inclination to focus only on on-premises since we make all our money there.

When everyone was focused on video on demand Netflix focused on shipping DVD's by mail. Not because it was the future but because it was the biggest market. The biggest mistake they could have made was to stick with DVDs. Instead they leveraged the revenue generated with the DVDs to build the best video on demand service. """
