Startups, for instance, can get started without buying expensive hardware and scale flexibly. 37signals — the company behind HEY.com and Basecamp.com — has calculated that by buying a few servers and moving from the cloud to on-premise, they can save 7 million dollars over 5 years. But in exchange for all this power, we pay a cost.
