Comment on Charm shutting down because of unfixable kernel panics with Rails on Ubuntu

Comments

Canonical provide commercial support for Ubuntu, don't they? For "$100k of investment on sysadmin services/infrastructure alone", did they ask Canonical for support?

Actually they spent like $20k in what I assume was the salary of their sysadmin:

The rest was infrastructure costs ($40k) and porting from Rails 3 to 2.

Totally. I know people who use Ubuntu Server only to be able to use paid commercial support in case of urging/unsolvable issues. (instead of Debian I mean)
