As a developer who's never been entirely comfortable with the hardware end of things, it seems like there is a tremendous opportunity here. I would pay a lot for set it and forget it hosting, where if you get TechCrunched or HNed the only consequence would be a spike in the amount of your bill.
It seems like this would be a very difficult problem to solve - kind of like Dropbox getting their service to work seamlessly on every device and OS - but doable, and very lucrative for whoever gets there first.
- tosh 14y agoTake a look at Google App Engine :)
- rpm4321 14y agoThanks for the tip :) No, I'm well aware of App Engine and Heroku. I guess I'm talking about an even greater level of abstraction and simplicity - an "Apple Easy" layer where you never have to think about any aspect of the servers, and that scales all aspects of the app seamlessly without any user intervention. In my opinion, Heroku and App Engine aren't there yet.
