Hi Bert,
I have participated in a lot of open source projects, for a long time, that
make use of software in the cloud as infrastructure.
These projects are "long lasting" and because the infrastructure is in the
cloud, we as users doesn't have to bother with backward compatibility issues.
Cheers,
Pablo.
I wouldn't trust software which is not open source. You cannot judge
if it does its job well, especcially in long lasting use, like f.e.
a database, how do you know if it still works if your table reach
the million records and the table is 127 fields wide with on the
second field a VARCHAR (127), I have seen many strange things in
software products.
What happens if a vendor gives up, or isn't interested anymore in
the specific product, or is bankrupt
What happens if a vendor decides to break backwards compatibility,
or he is just clumsy?
