Many hate the “as a service” model, you might need to elaborate on how it will be implemented.

Lots of options here TBH and I haven’t put much thought into it. Providing a service by running and managing software updates, migrations etc…, is one. MongoDB Atlas and Confluent Cloud are good examples of what I had in mind.
Why do people hate the “as a service” model?

Edit: i dont know how many people feel this way, I beleave this amd heard (verry biased, right to repair) people say this before.
Probably confusion but also abuse of the buisness model. “As a service” implies the recurrant payment is due to the service costing them resources to keep running. People like adobe are just rent seeking.
