    Mixue. They’re suddenly just popping up everywhere, and the price of their ice cream/drinks is dirt cheap to a point where it doesn’t even make any sense. I understand that the cost of those ingredients are dirt cheap anyway, but there’s no way their margins cover operations, rent, labor.

    The theory is that on-prem includes a lot of ancillary costs like a team of staff for maintenance (or cost for outsourcing it), hardware maintenance/upgrades, cybersecurity, dealing with failures, backup, load balancing, multi-region/multizone etc.

    I don’t think cloud solves all these issues necessarily and I am convinced if you do the calculations cloud ends up being more expensive depending on the scale. I think you really pay the premium for convenience, speed (of getting things going) and user experience (the software)
