I would like to use this. I have used Hugo only once and was only half successful in creating a webpage, because I am not so familiar with html and css. Do you have a ready to use GitHub repo somewhere? That would be really nice.
Why is that? It is very unlikely to answer more random requests with more nodes. You have to pay for the communication that is required in the cluster to locate the data. It will only be faster if you have some special knowledge and are able to partition the data in a smart way. Which will allow shortcuts when storing or receiving data.
I had a Mozilla wave back in the days. And I was very happy. Today you need 3 containers, is it awfully complex and there is no documentation. And the Mozilla guys are far less helpful than in the irc days. Could be cool. But unfortunately sucks. Is there anyone with a Mozilla sync setup, that is reasonably secure and willing to share his configuration?
I think Excel is still used. If people work for years with a tool it makes no sense to take it from them. This is like forcing my vim setup on another senior who uses for years vs code. It will not save enough to compensate for the decrease in productivity and mood.
It only makes sense of you can convince people.
There was thrift in my hometown, that was using excel to decide on the max credit for individuals. The document was copied and forked and the outcome was more random than anything. At least they could be convinced to introduce a database and a well written and maintained application, that does reliable work and provides the same output when given the same input.
What kind of startup are you? Where do you want to use office? Who creates most of the content?
I have worked at a company that started with Googledocs and ended with Markdown (paper / design docs) and reveal.js for presentations. And that is something I can take recommend. Why? Because it is simple text that can be stored in a repository and you gain the ability to compare versions. It is easy to change and you can convert it to almost anything. The most important target is obviously pdf to communicate with customers. Nobody wants odt, docx or other strange formats that require more than a browser.
Convincing the technical people was not necessary or done quick. Non coder like the CEO did like the suggestion least, but it was a revolution from the base and people who code where mostly creating content or talking at conferences.
