Yeah if they are not having to maintain servers they don’t need as many employees as they had. I wonder what types of folks didn’t quit? Obviously not afraid to do work.
Server farms are notorious for being staffed by very few people. We have a lot of them out here where electricity is only 2.6 cents per kwh. They consume power, but hardly hire anyone and they usually bring those employees from out of town.
Meanwhile the lib.s are trying to tear down all the damns built by our forefathers, cuz fish or something.
Well yes and no. You may not have to deal woth the physical infrastructure but you still have to manage the operating systems. Patching and OS upgrades, security, install and life cycle management. It can be mostly virtual but you still need people to manage all that. Historically they were the same people that would have managed the hardware.
A lot of that is automatable now, and if not, unfortunately, much can be outsourced to India.
Yeah my company just did the India thing. Whatever man. Tell yourself whatever you need to believe. It's fine. I just know the reality on the ground. Indian folk, some of them, are very good. Mostly those make it to the US and upon getting here demand a salary like those who are already here.
