Without specific numbers it is a bit difficult to be as clear as I would like but I read your comment as suggesting that the savings from owning/hosting your own equipment could pay for the team needed to operate that solution -- but then what was the point of switching?
The devil is in the details, and I wouldn't say that it never makes sense to bring operations in-house, but your post didn't make a clear case from my point of view.
- tinco 5y agoWell that's a great point of discussion. My illustration was that you could spend all the same budget and actually have 10 staff and a bunch of real hardware on your balance sheet, instead of just an enormous AWS bill. That's staff that might bring real talent and innovation to your company. And real hardware that will serve you even through financial hard times. Or you could spend half the budget and in my opinion still be way ahead, but that depends on your execution and the talent pool that's available to you of course.
