Welcome to Episode 73 Main Topic Self hosting, vs cloud hosting, vs colo hosting

• Control
• • Home: full control
  • Colo: less control but still high
  • IaaS: You’ve lost some control, but you still retain some. Decent trade off.
  • SaaS: little to no control
• Convenience
• • Home: Convenient for access, but just about nothing else.
  • • Colo: Access is inconvenient, but power/cooling is much more convenient
  • IaaS: This can be very convenient if you’re not into dealing with hardware at all.
  • SaaS: the loss of control can be inconvenient, but your not responsible for most of the stack, so its super convenient that way.
• Excitement or passion
• • Home: If you’re passionate about privacy, or doing it yourself, this can be a huge thrill
  • Colo: This is actually very similar to hosting at home, you just arent worried about the power/cooling.
  • IaaS: This isnt terribly different from Colo, unless you love tweaking hardware. IaaS can be very fun for someone who likes to build.
  • SaaS: I guess this depends on you, but SaaS is basically a canned solution, not much to get excited about.
• UpTime/OnCall
• • Home: You, you, and you.. No backup…
  • Colo: You, you, and mostly you.. Backup maybe?
  • IaaS: You’re responsible for your apps
  • SaaS: You’re screwed. Good luck.
