It's a false equivalence to suggest that managed services have zero staff costs, and that using a DIY database has a staff cost measured in whole FTEs.
- acdha 6y agoThat could be the answer to the question which was actually asked but if you read the thread again, notice that you’re arguing against a claim nobody made.

The engineer will be doing more than just cloud work. > This comparison is the #1 flawed sales tactic the cloud companies use to convince you youre saving money "False equivalence. The engineer will be doing more than just cloud work" -> "It's a false equivalence to suggest that [...] using a DIY database has a staff cost measured in whole FTEs." Hey, maybe AWS should launch some kind of ML-powered reading-comprehension-as-a-service?
- acdha 6y agoYes, do scroll up — note that the portions you quoted were the strawmen which nojito tossed out, not the original question, and perhaps ponder whether accusing someone else of not reading for comprehension is adding anything to the conversation.
