I still think there is HUGE room for a service company that will wrap Amazon services in an economic way.
The value proposition here is incredible, you can save so much money for companies.
At my previous company, I changed one of the data ingestion architecture and saved 250,000$ in YEARLY AWS bill.
Of course, there are many problems with this, but I still think there is room for this. Right now, this knowledge is in silos in companies. Lots of companies should benefit from this.
- schickling 9y agoThanks a great point, avitzurel! This will be exactly one of the core offerings what we're currently working on at Graphcool. AWS provides great building blocks but using them efficiently is a major challenge (especially for smaller teams). Like in your case, there is an enormous potential in better resource utilization!

- avitzurel 9y agoI am not talking about reselling or just wrapping it in a different package. My point is that a lot of companies are over paying Amazon by a lot. There is room to improve this. This is a classic service company, but the service it provides can be quantified and measured in a great way
