Support, Security, and outsourced management
If your team has the time to manage your GitLab installation, update it, fix it if/when it breaks, etc. Great. Other organization choose to outsource that to GitLab...
Same thing here with backups... People that want to roll their own inhouse solution would not be TarSnaps target.
- opendais 13y agoFyi, GitLab and GitHub both provide similar services. One is open source, one is not. You can buy on premise support from GitLab or GitHub for their respective products. So, it isn't rolling your own...or even being on your own [unless you choose to be]. The confusion is probably my fault, I'm not the clearest of posters.
