I think it depends very much on what your product does. E.g. in your case (games) bandwidth is a big deal. The last three companies I've worked at have all had AWS bills of more than $10M/yr and data egress costs were never more than 2-8% of the bill. A mixture of B2C and B2B SaaS companies.
In that case, the economics of bare metal aren't as clear-cut.
- late2part 5y agoThis is such a great conversation, and I agree with you - that while the egress is egregious; it's rarely a large portion of the cost. I run a team that manages our public and private (DC) cloud for a successful tech company. - I need more folks to help us do things better. Please contact me Mr. Pugs or others if you are open to thinking about looking at another company.
