Nice, but still one worry: A bug, or an attacker, sends outbound traffic through the roof, and newbie's fun experiment ends in a huge bill. More than one such story on HN recently (AWS).
Skimming the pricing docs just now, I don't see protection against bandwidth overage:

- mrkurt 6y agoWe waive invoices when there's a mistake like this (we racked up a $20k Google bill a few years ago, we get it). We also work hard to keep bandwidth costs down. At $0.02/GB, even 2.5TB of traffic is ~$50. Which is why it's easy to forgive invoices.
