I think this is less about the bill, and more about the customer service of the 2 companies, as well the "hidden" provisions in the ToS that are not clear in CloudFlare Marketing or normal setup docs.
- blahbhthrow3748 6y agoThe limits aren't exactly hidden in the ToS, the author just wasn't aware of them. If you don't pay money for a service what kind of support can you expect on a holiday?
- hn_check 6y agoNot only are they not hidden, they should really be common sense. That he seems surprised that Cloudflare doesn't cache 14GB files is surprising. There is some common belief that every service has infinite capacity in every dimension.
- syrgian 6y agoTo be fair, CloudFront's limit is 20GB.
- hn_check 6y agoAnd the price for what he did would have been extreme. Serving a 14GB is something like $1.19 USD on CloudFront. It sounds like he was operating in tiny land and expected bills to be commensurate, so it just seems irrational to expect a low or free tier of another service to do this for nothing.
- robertlagrant 6y agoI don't know. I think their CloudFlare's pricing is pretty clear.
