Right but ultimately that's a cost thing, right? Because you can solve those problems through other means and by hiring internally.

Serverless is meant to obviate some of that. But it is less compelling when the vendor tries to gobble up that margin for themselves.






You will all forced to go serverless because new grads can't use the command line. Running a database is about the hardest thing you can do. If it is serverless, you don't need special skills, preventing employees from becoming valuable lowers costs across the board.

Have you tried being less jaded? Running a database is NOT about the hardest thing you can do.

This is me being less jaded. Support those little wins!
