And yet many of them self-host Confluence. And many other things. And provision servers all the time. And you have to provide a CC (or maybe PO) for Confluence in any case. And you can't just associate Confluence with a cost centre. And you have to budget it. And... literally every single one of your arguments applies just as much to Confuence.
- ivan_gammel 5y agoSelf-hosted Confluence Server edition is a legacy of the times when cloud SaaS was not an option. Now you cannot even buy it, because it is being replaced with DataCenter edition.
- rablackburn 5y agoIt’s not that confluence doesn’t require a server, or a technological feature at all, it’s about the business processes. The business is guided to build a setup where setting up confluence is no-friction. Whereas a one-off generic server is much higher in comparison.
