A scrappy startup in <any country> could see an unexpected $5k bill as business-ending. It's so absurdly easy to run up massive bills, and there's few controls, and practically useless alerting - so you can't rely on that. Someone spun up a 3 node m5.xlarge RDS Cluster with SQL Server Standard? I hope you notice quickly, 'cause that's going to be >$5k/month. They don't show a minimum monthly cost for any of these things, either. No, you're assumed to be okay with unlimited charges, and are left to your own devices to figure it out.
