Yes, I realize it's already in the cloud. But in this interview, Rand discusses the idea of a new hybrid cloud model that doesn't live on Amazon's systems. This would increase reliability and perhaps reduce cost. And might, perhaps, pave the way for the tech to move entirely in-house (a la Google and Bing). Still, sorry for the poor headline on this post; I'd love to go back and edit it if I could! The details he shares about cost are eye-opening. Those monthly updates run up to $300K. Information may *want* to be free... but it's important to remember that it isn't!
UPDATE: Many thanks to Jen for updating the title on this post. :)
+1 Jen
haha Thanks guys, but that totally wasn't me. :D I went to bed and someone else made the change!
really interesting look "behind the curtain" over at MOZ. The difference in price between amazon servers and alternative is pretty amazing!
Great interview. I was blown away by that $650K Amazon fee. Thanks for sharing!
I tried my best to get moz.org/.com info out of him, better luck next time :)
