@oftencalledcathy @carnage4life I am not convinced by the article. I am a fan of self hosting but to compare Salesforce with AWS seems odd. SaaS and Hosting are two different pairs of shoes, imho. 100% of our customers who had severe IT incidents run their own machines. Also there are a lot of different ways how you can use these clouds. You can safe a lot when you do it right.
Also it compares a bundle of 'all streaming providers' with average cable costs. Uber I can't tell...never used it.
