How is this different from any other tech consultant? Seriously, if you sold Real Estate the same way software is sold you would go to prison. If you sold used cars the same way software is sold you would go to prison.

If accept the mainstream Bible there is no Hell.
You haven't said anything about your application. Do you run it continuously? Sporadically? Will the machine be sitting idle much of the time? Do you have the staff to support it? What about networking and storage? Do you have the ability to rapidly move and store data as the actual computing is only part of the story.
It may make sense to rent the time due to lower storage and maint. costs than to actually buy and maintain the infrastructure.
As in the modern as in approximately this century. I assumed when I said "NoSQL" you knew what I meant as opposed to "no sql".

Do you seriously think the grungy garage band feel of "Americana" was on accident? BTW, I like those covers.
OK, context check. I meant modern "NoSQL" database engines. The older ones have survived because they got better. The new ones I was actually referring to are proud of the fact they are eventually consistent, meaning they are not ACID compliant. Though over time they will be, or will be discarded.
Open space, cheap housing, and abundant water. I interviewed for a job in Pittsburgh and the more I investigated the town the more I liked it. Given an offer I would've moved there. Besides the Monroeville mall is nearby.

[1] Is there a Godwin's like law re: Kartrina? Should there be one?
"nosql databases that can do the same
Except NoSQL databases are not guaranteed ACID compliant. Meaning you may lose critical medical information. The relational model is built around ACID compliance. I hope by now so is MUMPS.
Diebold could build it!
Company A has cash flow. A should purchase B in order to shelve the cure. That's just smart business.

Nope. I've said it and I have none of that. Nice try trying to poison the conversation with a stereotype.
As a 1099 I was a real contractor. I paid all my own taxes including SS. I have an EIN on file with the IRS which I use when I freelance and is used for these purposes. I have worked as an independent contractor, a 1099, and as an employee of a contracting house. When I was an employee of the contracting house I was incorrectly referred to as a contractor. I was not, I was an employee but not of the contracting house's client.
It isn't all that hard to grasp.
