> For me to justify spending "3-6" peoples worth of money it had better save "3-6" peoples worth of time.

Well, it does in my experience, especially if you have to handle 2000+ hosts, that's some serious infra there, need serious tooling.

May I ask which country is it?



I think another thing to keep in mind is that not necessarily hardware infrastructure size equals to profitability.

Some industries need a lot of hardware because they crunch a lot of data but they aren't software companies. Think Computer graphics rendering.

Paying a FTE salary for software is crazy for them. I would love to see a ration of developers/infrastructure per industry/company.


Sweden! :D
