Editing Requirements Gathering (section)

=== The Lucky Employee ===
* The Lucky Employee has an employer who sees the value in what they are doing, and allows the employee to use their colocation / rack facilities, or even better, some kit to go in it!
* They may also have a double edged sword, as their lab may be limited to fitting in whatever space they have been allocated, for example rack-mount servers only.
* The lucky employee may be under pressure to buy kit which is similar to that which they use in their day job.
* The employer of the lucky employee may also have certain expectations of the lab, for example the employee may use the lab for testing out things before they go into production systems. As such, security and remote access are both key, and could be required 24/7.
* They probably have aspirations to run all flash and 10Gbps networking, but these may be relative pipe dreams.
* Some of their lab kit may actually be cast-off enterprise kit from the business, which have gone end of life or end of support.
