Navisite Managed Infrastructure Services (NaviCloud) vs. OVH Dedicated Servers vs. wasmCloud

Clarify before hand any additional charges for remote hand and arrangement/SLA for remote hand. Negotiate well on these terms as they tend to be more flexible around this. Clarify shipping and handling charges if any.

With the dedicated servers, we have maintained a consistent over 99 percent uptime. Several apparel purchases are made on our website every month and therefore having versatile servers is very important. OVH servers are robust enough and offer secure HIPAA compliance. But as you scale higher, and aim to have secure servers you might need to engage security software like SOAR systems as OVH security is not enough.

If you want to start pivoting your legacy code into a serverless paradigm this is the platform to target. If you want to start moving away from walled gardens and back into a space where code isn't centralized, costs can be offset by utilizing customer or edge hardware this is the platform to focus on. If you want a model that will scale well past many of the existing serverless frameworks, that won't get caught up in the security weaknesses of current paradigms this is what you need to invest in. If you want modern code to interact with legacy code in a safe way that doesn't expose vulnerabilities you can't patch against wasmCloud is awesome. If you want to write simple code that can jump from cloud to cloud to the user or edge node check it out!

wasmCloud is still in the early stages of development but the product is rapidly evolving and stabilizing and I feel it will be a preferred way of deploying and managing remote, distributed applications in the future.

The core team is extremely responsive in their provided channels. From slack to github issues, there is never a long wait for feedback or guidance.

Navisite's rates were better and they seemed to have more SQL Server expertise. This was about 5 years ago and it may not be the case anymore

Have not made a purchase yet as we are still in the POC stage.

The team is incredibly helpful and informative about the product - I have not needed to use their professional services thus far.

• Cost savings by not having a full-time DBA on staff - saving of at least 50K a year
• Data team not on call 24/7
• Navisite team will try to fix issue if possible - e.g. shrink log files that have grown

Incentivized

• Consistent 99 percent uptime.
• Quite affordable, with plans costing barely 100 dollars per month.
