I've been on an AWS project for about a month now

And, my god, there is so much to be infuriated by.

My first revelation was that there is no payment killswitch. E.g. if I spend more than X dollars, stop all my services and don't charge me anymore. Nope sorry can't do that

You can set "Budget alerts" but holy fuck, the emails do not arrive anywhere near reasonably on time

$0.40 per secret stored, billed monthly. Imagine the keys for every lock in your apartment showing up as charges on your rent invoice.

With every managed service, it feels like the setup menus are just a game of minesweeper, where if you don't know any better, you might accidentally cost your organization $500 per hour and not know until the next day when the cost dashboard updates.

Maybe it's just because I'm new to it, but apparently, this kind of shit is rampant among most cloud providers.

Biggest companies in the world still need to pickpocket their customers and that's somehow okay

I only decided to set up a personal AWS for some minor things after having worked on it at employers for many years, after watching employers accidentally spend $3000 a day or $1 million a month or $35,000 in error. Cloud is the devil, bring back servers. One flat piece of hardware you can do whatever with...but even that's not sacred. If you use hosted servers, the hosts often still charge for ingress/egress and other things now, so you still fall into traps if not careful. Simpler though.

So I guess, storing your own server in your office is the way to go, but then the ISP issues...

Let us all just go back to paper, actually.
