    True but you can run Linux on your own machine but it doesn’t stop anyone from paying AWS or Microsoft to handle it for them.

      Give it 6 months and Amazon will be running this model for you “serverless” with a code name making it seem like their own product.

      Yes but people will pay redhat Linux to use a distro with support. Also almost the entire US internet server infrastructure runs on Linux.

      So yeah a company can provide an open source product with commercial support

          Bizarre, I guess their business has been running on hopes and dreams instead of money for the past 30 years lol.
