  I'm all in on the "1,000 fans". Really focusing on community.

  Focused on learning AWS Lambda & serverless generally and plan to do much more with it (IT noob). Wave of the future for small scale SaaS & microservices.

    My personal opinion is that it is not worth learning, serverless is not in a good place and i have a suspicion it won't be useful for next few years. it's not as cost effective as they are advertised, especially if you want to do something more complex than serving static files

      That’s not true at all? What?
      • ozychhi 8y ago
        Have you tried doing serverless? I have and my experience with it was quite bad. Here are other people sharing the same opinion https://arxiv.org/pdf/1812.03651.pdf https://arxiv.org/pdf/1812.03651.pdf

        Serverless is a solution in search of a problem.

  Run a genome sequencing facility. Here's what we're looking to do or what is top of mind for us in 2019: Sign a couple of departments that we do a lot of business with onto a sequencing subscription service (recurring rev). Launch our new bacterial identification pipeline & product for Ear/Nose/Throat doctors. Expand organic marketing content while scaling paid marketing. Go as far into automation in our lab as we can. Start dabbling in RNA sequencing and further our offerings in B/T cell immunology.
