Sure it is: Lightsail includes plenty of transfer with its price. At the $10 tier you get 3tb thrown in. If you're doing anything that burns even a modest amount of transfer, the price difference will be sizable.
- busterarm 6y agoAhh very true, I was just assuming that most people are not operating under these conditions. Those are also areas where AWS will negotiate on price with an enterprise though. If you're small, you can certainly save money with LightSail. EC2 gives you better pricing options when you commit to spend though (even if you aren't an enterprise...).
