- pc86 4y agoI would imagine metal and silicon are a small portion of DO's operating costs.
- ceejayoz 4y agoComputers were already pretty cheap, and engineers are not.
- sithlord 4y agoits all of us trying to maximize TC that drives up the cost!
- seunosewa 4y agoI don't think Intel and AMD based servers are getting much faster or cheaper anymore for custom workloads (web apps, etc)
- lancesells 4y agoEmployees, electricity, physical space, infrastructure, etc.
- nik736 4y agoThis is not true at all. Electricity prices are crazy and hardware is a lot more expensive for us (not affiliated with DO, I run a PaaS service) than it was 2 years ago.
