I mean basically a company just has to make money, and today, dealing with a colo and all is probably just going to get in the way of that for the vast majority of companies in the early stages. Making the claim that relying on cloud is a big mistake is a pretty bold claim as well
- satvikpendem 3y agoIndeed, which is why I find their reasoning quite suspect.
- Incipient 3y agoThis generalising misses the point for me. If you're trying to scale, fast, into the global stage "half a rack of colo" isn't going to cut it. You're going to need presence everywhere and that can be impossible to deploy fast. If you're targeting say a single market, say North America, with fewer larger clients you're likely to be able to manage it from two DCs and can realistically manage it yourself. It's just "right solution for the right situation". Cloud is absolutely not always the right solution.
