- Ten-fold+ cost reduction over services like AWS and Heroku is not uncommon for decent sized clients (spending 10k+ per month), amortized over three years. Plus, since the hardware is yours, you get to keep it after the three years. Sell it, throw it into a Hadoop cluster, Christmas present for the wife, whatever.
- Custom built hardware for your exacting needs (typically SuperMicro core). Setups allow you to grow with your hardware (e.g. blades need not have all nodes filled).
- Work with local datacenters to deploy private cloud(s) near you, via colocation (10RU leases at 2 to 3 DCs works well)
- Failover at all points, including the hardware, server, and datacenter levels
- SmartOS or Xen hypervisor based clouds with Ansible
- Pricing is directly related to how much your costs are reduced. In fact, most is observed on a per month basis the few following months after deployment which will match the cost savings. Minimal disruptions to cash-flows.
2. MACHINE LEARNING, OCR, NLP:
- Leveraging Scala, Clojure, and functional JavaScript
- Multiple 42u racks can be devoted to processing
- Retainer based: ~2k per day, ~8k per week, or ~30k per month.
