You saved a lot of money but you'll spend a lot of time in maintenance and future headaches.

Look from my perspective, I'll got flying color from my owner because of the cost saving and got my team morale up that I really need them to maintain the system instead of lay them off.

Also in some cases that also mean new jobs opening.

The last 4-5 years taught me that my most often single point of failure where I can't do a thing is Cloudflare not my on premise servers

Mine went like this:

Thought Process: > The user is asking about a historical event. I need to provide accurate information bla...bla..bla...Tank Man...bla..bla..bla.. (all seems okay)

Answer: > The Tiananmen Square incident was a political movement that occurred in the spring of 1989 in Beijing, China. Bla..bla...bla

And suddenly all of that replaced with a pink messages:

Uh-oh! There was an issue with the response. Content Security Warning: The content may contain inappropriate content.

This one liner example is one of the reason why some people use pandas and some people despise it.

It so easy for my analyst team because of daily uses but my developers probavly will never thought/know BME and decided to implement the code again.

IMO most companies under $1B in top 5 population countries treat head of international division just the same with their head of regional.

So 35-40 years old leaders are common.

We still use couchdb & pouchdb only for syncing data for our salesmen app.

It's an offline first PWA (Salesman need to make an order even if offline).

And pouchdb make it easier because we don't have to care about indexeddb, leveldb or whatever of users browser's db.

So its a single codebase for serving web, ios and android.

Its great for sync but less then good for other uses

Interesting! We can see the most locations in India, Indonesia, and China as well as a significant number in the US and Europe.

Are these because the bad guys are in there or just because of the population size?

China, India, US, and Indonesia are the top four of the most populous country and also 4 countries with most internet users.

Even the size of 10% of Indonesian internet users are almost the entire Taiwan population.

For us this may like a walk in the park.

For non technical people there is a possibility their os don't have git, wget and c++ compiler (especially in windows)

This is just like dropbox case years ago.

For video (especially with proper 3-2-1 backup) it is somehow expensive.

5 years of our sales and finance data from 10+ countries takes less than a petabyte

Our 2 years backup of hundreds CCTV for only a single factory compressed, reduced to 15 fps takes around 4 PB. This data only used when we have a complaint case. Most of the times it just overwritten with new data without a single person ever see the video.
