NO.
Your target audience are developers. And it's already super easy to do what you want done with pre-built images, yum etc. Then there is a trust issue with someone who's new.
If you want to go ahead and provide a service to setup distributed architectures using Nutch/Hadoop etc, you have an audience, but it's a lot of work and there are people already doing it.
- europa 16y agoYou are right, my target audience are developer and invariably for most of them it is trivial to build their own servers. But still it required some time to be spend on these tasks which can be utilized for something else more valuable for his /her business. And 'trust' that's what exactly I want to harvest from my customers for the success of my service. You suggestion of more advanced/complicated setup (Nutch/Hadoop et) is well taken. Thanks Edit:Spelling
- cridal 16y agoYES. Not every developer (or a technical startup founder) is a sys admin or wants to get deep into server provisioning/software installation issues. This is orthogonal to what they are trying to build (at least in the beginning). I believe your idea has legs. Pursue it.
