So you are saying they don't need much compute juice and storage? But compute juice and storage are what cost the money at cloud providers, so their financial reasons are weaker than the ones of other companies.
- danpalmer 3y agoMy point was that by not needing many resources, and not scaling quickly, it is much easier for Basecamp to run on their own machines. That said, compute and storage tend to be the cheapest products from cloud providers, as they are the products that the other "value add" products are built on top of where more margin is made. For example, EC2 is much cheaper than Lambda for the compute you get, because Lambda does a lot more for you.
