This response doesn't address why Netflix and Expedia Group is joining AWS open distro effort. Licensing is major headache for them I assumed. Personally, as current and former administrator of multiple ES cluster, I'm quite worri

I think you got it wrong. S/he want to meet the founder. But s/he's a schlub. After few cycles the founders may have lesser incentives to participate.

If you think "promoting" is bad, try giving out free hardware. I toured datacenters in Malaysia and the amount of Huawei equipment is unbelievable. All major telco DC are using them. I asked around and most are saying that Huawei

I haven't had the time to try this. But my issue with built-in AWS forecast is it'll be totally inaccurate once Reserved Instance come into play. Does CloudForecast solve this issue?

Completely agree. To add to that, HN also makes me feel inadequate, but in a good way. That in return "forces" me to always improve and strive for the better especially in my career.

Familiarity? MySQL/MariaDB is pretty much the "standard" database that most programmer started with. At least in university. So there is no point on using PosgreSQL if MariaDB fits the bill for them. Less learning curve, easy

Don't think so. I maintained multi-vendor NAS'es and always try to be up-to-date. Do you mean QNAP? Last year they started offering new enterprise NAS with custom OS built on top of BSD kernel > QNAP Enterprise Storage(QES) ope

I hate the fact that most people(including me apparently) still assume AWS is not in their "downtime" equation. Just spend the last 30min troubleshooting SMTP auth problem. Not funny when its Sunday.
