I think we’re in platform reliance mode for quite a while. I think of all of these SaaS companies as different icons on an abstract AWS console that doesn’t exist yet.
We wouldn’t bat an eye at using S3, EC2, and RDS as a host your own setup. The only difference here is that startups are moving faster than incumbents.
FWIW that’s one reason why Steamship (disclaimer: I’m the founder) aggregates all AI services under a single API key and interface. It’s to deal with the insane glue-code hassle of running this stuff on your own.
- chillbill 3y agoThat’s fine but the title is wrong
- quickthrower2 3y agoAnd using S3, RDS and EC2 I would argue is hosting your own as you are using foundational components. Same if you run LLaMa on a rented A100.
- chillbill 3y agoNot the same at this point. Setting up properly secure AWS stuff is arguably more demanding than setting up your own box at home.
