Growth at any Cost

Focus on last decade was growth at any cost

Pushing as much on third parties (Cloud Vendors) makes sense

No resource to put on Open Source requiring “elbow grease”

Open Source Catches Up Again

  • Lock-in with Cloud Vendor
  • Use Proprietary Solutions
  • Highly Differentiated Cloud
  • Hostage
  • No Vendor Choice

​

​

  • Freedom to Run Anywhere
  • Use Open Source
  • Cloud Is Commodity
  • Customer
  • Choice of Vendors
