> Sure, you could just pay $5,000 a month to a website to show a banner ad directly, but a larger % of your money would be wasted How do you know that the waste is higher with the banner ad?

You don't need to hit a huge number of service providers because the USA market is highly concentrated. That's why you read things like «The Anti-Coercion Instrument (ACI), a nuclear option that has yet to be deployed, would empow

Diamond open access and fully OA publishers might do that (maybe as an add-on service on top of LOCKSS or Portico), but the Big Five definitely do not want to do that, because they sell bulk access services at lofty prices. There's no

That's already answered in OP's article. k8s: > Good stability. S3: > AWS S3 is the premier cloud-based object storage service. It may have higher availability, but it’s three times more expensive than OVH’s S3 storage.

First time I hear someone claim RDS is cheap. What specifications do you have in mind? Scaleway costs approximately 51 % less, looking at on-demand postgresql instance with 8 GB RAM (db.t3.large vs. db-dev-l). https://aws.amazon.

I'm curious too. I think OVH is ahead of Scaleway in the B2B market. For example in Italy you can only sell to the public sector if you have a local subsidiary passing a number of bureaucratic hurdles. OVH has one, Scaleway doesn'

Thank you for sharing! There's no excuse for staying on AWS (or Azure) these days, but it's hard to convince executives because the alternatives are marketed much less.

Yes this whole thread is so depressing. Most commenters here are talking as if electric trains were an oddity. It's like listening to people questioning the benefit of running water over the old school walk to the well.
