What if that engineer fat fingered and reserved a million GPU instances instead though?
It would be nice if cloud providers were better at surfacing potentially company killing things via their dashboards and nag emails.

- jiggawatts 5y agoNot everything in AWS is a VM with a limit. For example, their CDN has no "TB per month limit". If your site gets popular and is 100% cacheable, you could be getting a million dollar bill. I hear similar horror stories about the various distributed databases in several clouds. They're all crazy expensive.
