With the growth of Kubernetes, it's getting very feasible even for smaller companies to rent their own colocation in a datacenter, shove their own servers into the racks and run the company's own private cloud.

We did the math at my current employer, and AWS was roughly 20x as expensive as buying your own servers over a 5 year period, including the datacenter costs. Of course this also means you have to take on more responsibility yourself, like swapping hardware if it breaks, and cabling the rack yourself... But nothing that makes up for the 20x price difference.

I'm poor and have been eating a lot of pasta but I do like to play around with different sauces. My last one I made with Butternut Squash.
