Exactly. Put that Mac Mini in your data center with redundant power, redundant networking and complete failover to another data center. I've been there and done that - it ain't cheap. Your rack enclosure with redundant power sources and Fibre Channel Adapters is going to run you more than the Mac Mini itself. Add in the need for high availability and failover and yeah, you're looking at some real money. When you look at the total cost of putting a Mac Mini in your data center, and not just the cost of a Mac Mini itself, then you'll see this is a good deal.
- delfinom 6y agoThe fuck are you doing that a Mac Mini needs failover? At that point, dear lord have mercy on that dev team and whatever horrible ideas management have pushed.
- taylodl 6y agoPaying a team of iOS developers $150/hr to create apps. The Mac Mini is their CI/CD server - if it goes down then they're toast. A team costing $1,500/hr sits idle because I'm too cheap to pay $25.99/day to keep them productive? That doesn't make any sense.
