Ask HN: What enterprise-ish solution would your company pay money for?

MAANG "expat" via recent layoffs.

Interested in launching a F(L)OSS project people would actually benefit from and that could be monetized in a fair way without locking features away from self-hosted noncommercial uses.

Ideas:

0. Modern Linux cluster distro. Batteries included (backup, DR, security, analytics, and alerting), turnkey k8s with support for CUDA and OFED.

1. CoreOS-alike immutable distro with novel features including FUSE synthetic configuration files configurable either by TUI, CLI, API, or web admin.

2. {{Your idea here}}

I’d love a calendaring system you can share with anyone in the world with an email that you can be updated and easily decide what you want to see

It may exist, I haven’t found it.

I’d also like a non SaaS for printing to zebra printers for fanfold badges from an iPad; I may actually try to write that one myself.
