It's still a problem even if it's not the internal monitoring system. Customers use CloudWatch to detect problems with DynamoDB and get notified. This dependency means customers may not get notified if CloudWatch does not work as

Can't agree more. I can't figure out why this is possibly the case. Similarly I have lots of that I have seen (and rated in Netflix) presented on my home page. Why? I don't even have an hypothesis. Netflix also don't ha

Looks very useful, congrats! Cassandra dependency may be an obstacle for wider adoption. "Don't worry if you are not experienced with these technologies, Kong works out of the box" These kind of statements are problematic. If

I'd recommend looking at Graylog. It uses Elasticsearch under the hood, surrounds it with an application that focuses on log management specifically. https://www.graylog.org/

The title is misleading at best. Apple does not care what support you have. They just don't want you to advertise that in their app store.

The challenge is measurement. For sales people, it's easier to measure the individual sales, hence you can have commission based on individual performance. For developers it is much harder to measure individual performance. We have imp

The cost of the systems is almost irrelevant. The time of qualified people is far more expensive. Sot it's not just the elasticity. You have to look everything from the time perspective as well. What additional knowledge will I need? W

Agreed. Even when you have an in-house team, there are always other things that are core to your business to do. Growing a team is hard and expensive beyond the cost of the additional engineer. These SaaS tools let startups stay smaller, an

It doesn't work that way in practice. I've been to more than one enterprise where an in-house developed application was no longer maintained, original developers were not available, and no one knew how the application even worked.

Why do you think Uber is about to raise funding with ~$40 billion valuation? They don't have profits now because they are investing in growth.

In my experience it's mostly due to convenience. When public transportation is available and more convenient, it's heavily used. It needs to be available everywhere and all/most of the time. Car pooling is similar, coordinati

It does not seem all that even. As I understand it Amazon is demanding Hachette to sell their books at a certain price. This is highly unusual. Amazon can demand higher percentage of the sales, etc. but controlling the price of your product

If we're to accuse someone of plagiarism, we have to present the evidence. Onus is on the accuser. OP has done a disservice to his cause by not providing any evidence.

That's what I was thinking. Stuff in my house is either too bulky or don't have much resale value (as stolen goods). Our house was burglarized while living in Switzerland, and they did not touch any of the electronics, presumably

Serious question: What do people rob these days? It seems like there is nothing that can be easily transported and sold in most houses.

Settlement free peering only happens if the traffic is balanced. In the case of Level3 and Verizon, it's not, hence Verizon's point (and apparently it was Level3's point when dealing with Cogent) is that the settlement free p

Agreed. I was more commenting on the more recent trend of "risk averse VC investment". As the OP states at $1.5 ARR, they would be profitable. It feels like VC investment in B2B space has become highly risk averse, only funding ex

If the requirement for VC investment is $1.5m in AAR and fast growth rate, there does not seem to be much of a "venture" in that. This sounds like what a bank would require to loan you money, an almost certainty that you can pay i

I do appreciate the analysis and the message of the post that the total sales can mask problems, however neither of the examples are failures. Herbalife may expand to other products instead of additional companies. Amway, probably the most
