This is a forum about VC-backed start-ups, where the cost of setting up even a basic DC will wipe out most Series A/B fundraising rounds.

The rest of your comment makes it clear you're entirely speculating, like hiring being an obstacle to spending tens of millions of dollars to build a DC.

The actual linked article is about a company(also VC backed startup and no by Y-Combinator no less ) saving few millions on SSD cost alone by 20% performance improvement. It is a reasonable expectation then the discussions would be at that scale not typical HN reader setup .

I am not entirely speculating, I have been part of the recruitment industry for the last decade, but you have already decided to discard statements from a random stranger on the internet (totally reasonable!) so no point in arguing this further.
