It's time to fix the AWS free tier
- RileyJames 7y agoI have to agree, I prefer google cloud billing. Particularly for api rate limited billing, even in the free tier I can see exactly how much each request is costing, by type, key, api, immediately after making the call. It makes it very easy to test out a use case and determine how much it would actually cost (pricing charts can be a pretty rough estimate when use cases grow more complex). And the hard stop, $300 free credit is exactly what I want when kicking tires / MVPing. I imagine a lot of free tier usage fits into the developer testing / tire kicking. Going one step further than the docs, and making sure the api / SDK do as described.
