The fact that all the top-line Cloud hosts are really (really!) expensive just adds insult to injury; so perhaps this will start to accelerate the plans of those looking for contingencies. The good news is that we now are in the era of K8s and cheap(er) CPUs (AMD), so there are a lot more options now than just "betting on AWS". Funnily enough, I'm now starting to think that the only reason AWS proliferated as much as they did was to only fuel the VC capital boom of the last decade and not much else. Startups we able to promise huge valuations and returns based on the belief that AWS would "scale for us" and they didn't really need the inhouse expertise needed to grow. Just sell the growth.
