  • European IT/software development professionals, how realistic is it to expect a European Cloud company being able to offer a similar level of service and cost to AWS and Azure?

  • Hetzner and OVH are bigplayers, maybe they'll wake up.

  • You can read more about it on the Wikipedia page

    *Serverless is a misnomer in the sense that servers are still used by cloud service providers to execute code for developers. *

    Ah, marketing then, should've known.

  • What's a "serverless" provider?Hetzner offers way more than just a VPS. Wouldn't their Storage Boxes fit the bill?

  • European private domain service providers?

  • I use joker.com (de), but what do you mean by private?I think these from Iceland fit the bill, but i haven't used them: orange and flokinet.

  • virt-manager supports, at least, kvm and lxc/incus, so you should be fine.

  • The Rust code isn’t closed source yetFTFY

  • but they do exist and most of those would be solved with a memory and type safe language.

    Maybe.

    Still, there are other sources of bugs beyond memory management.

    And i'd rather have GPL-ed potentially unsafe C code to... closed-source Rust code.

    Jump

  • I fear moving away from GPL that moving to Rust seems to bring, but Rust does fix real memory issues.

    So you prefer closed-source code to potentially unsafe open-source code?

    Take the recent rsync vulnerabilities for example.

    Already fixed, in software that's existed for years and is used by millions. But Oh no, memory issues, let's rewrite that in

    <language of the month>

    ! will surely result in a better outcome.

  • as long as the linux kernel is still gpl.

    I seem to recall some drama about rust in the kernel... what could that mean...

  • I don’t actually get the joke with clbuttic, though.

    Replacing "ass" everywhere with "butt".

    Jump

  • See other comments: all these rewrites are not using the GPL but rather permissive licenses like MIT. Bye-bye FOSS (in those ecosystems).

  • SIBS came up with virtual credit cards since at least 2009 - those are Visa or Mastercard cards, mind you, although that's defined by the debit card that it's associated with (so defined by the bank).

    You can pay your bills in Portuguese ATMs, buy tickets, recharge your travel pass, withdraw money without a card, etc... makes most other systems seem like the stoneage.

    Jump

  • Portugal has it’s own network, Multibanco

    That's the customer-facing ATM network, i'm not so sure SIBS's infrastructure doesn't rely on Via/Mastercard, even if they provide SPEA facilities.
