My point is that there is a reality that AWS can offer even a crummier, more expensive version than someone else, and it will still garner the $'s.

- manigandham 7y agoSure, because that's what customers are fine with. Again the argument has nothing to do with open-source. Everyone has the same challenges when competing with a bigger company selling the same thing.
- cbsmith 7y agoIt's not because they are bigger.
- cbsmith 7y agoEven when Amazon wasn't the largest company on the planet, anyone offering services on AWS had a hell of a time competing on equal footing with AWS offering a similar, if inferior, version of the service. It's not unlike when Microsoft was competing with application vendors... except in the case of open-source you're competing with your own code.
