This is very true. I work in the public sector and while we often need to store petabytes of data we have a hard time finding and keeping engineering talent to do stuff like this. Instead we buy expensive enterprise stuff. I find it frustrating.
- cmurf 11y agoI agree. Public dollars should, as much as possible, be used to implement and advance open software and hardware. It's no longer just about "free" as in no cost, it's free as in no contract, no lock-in; and not "no one owns it" but rather "everyone owns it." There's a certain obligation and clear benefit for everyone to make it better, including easier to implement.
