Mainly DNS and email.
- pnpnp 3y agoOut of curiosity, why DNS?
- theshrike79 3y agoIf DNS doesn't work, nothing works. The hassle of having to keep it running is more work than just paying the few bucks a month for someone else to do it.
- skyyler 3y agoTroubleshooting DNS issues can be quite like trying to catch a greasy squirrel at night.
- andrewstuart 3y ago>> catch a greasy squirrel at night Challenging at the best of times. You get better at it after the 20th try.
- paxys 3y agoIf you are an individual or smaller company, definitely. When AWS and GCP join the "don't want to do it myself" crowd though, you have to start to wonder who exactly can take on this responsibility. Email and DNS are some of the fundamental protocols of the internet. If we have reached a point where they are getting too complex to use, what is the path forward from here?
- betaby 3y agoThey are not too complex to use. They had low ROI and not much differentiation.
- partyguy 3y agoI run both of those things for a while now, and I think it's easier than many expect. And once it's set up correctly, both Email and DNS Servers do not require much maintenance and scale pretty well.
