It’s a matter of priority. During periods of revenue or user growth, reducing infrastructure cost may be a premature optimization. Now may be a time to focus on operational and logistical inefficiencies
- buro9 4y agoWhilst I high level agree, I also high level disagree. Even during hyper growth you should be aware of your costs, because you should have an idea of your margin. I'm not sure any engineer that has awareness of costs, CPU, memory, storage, network, etc... is not trying to reduce some of it - even during hyper growth.
