    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.

    While it always depends on your use case, I believe security concerns of need for root user is a concern, so it is worth considering daemonless container service over Docker, which works just as good and has support for docker compose. Another good reason is the licensing for enterprise usage, which podman has no restrictions for. It’s also a great choice for OpenShift integration, which is seamless and works well with Rancher as well.

    • It works exceptionally well and is compatible with Docker compose
    • Podman Desktop actually makes individual usage also pretty easy.

    Cons
    Navisite
    • San Jose facility power outage caused damage to company's credibility, this should not occur again being 7x24 facility and backup generator
    • Avoiding too many management changes will help create good connection with individuals for sustained harmony

    • Podman desktop is getting more stable with each version, but does need more UX friendliness as well.
    • Official support for development tools and IDEs is missing for most tools
    • It works well with Kubernetes, but I wouldn’t mind additional improvements

    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

    Podman is Daemonless, lightweight and doesn’t charge us for commercial usage, so it’s a relief for startups. Minikube and Rancher are a bit more complex for our use cases; so we keep things simple, fast and secure with Podman that can easily be managed with Podman Desktop and other works with our docker-compose based projects without issues.

    Return on Investment
    Navisite
    • 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

    • We definitely feel more secure.
    • We do not suffer from memory or cpu overuses as it uses fedora coreOS which is lightweight
    • We do not have to worry about license payments for our basic usages.
    • It’s open source so quick fixes imminent with maximum transparency.
