Sure, it may be suited for large enterprise customers. But no early stage startup should start on AWS imo

  no startup should start on aws unless they have years of expertise with it. unless they can tape over all the knobs they don’t need with little notes that say: peel off when your on the moon. this is what i’ve done here. i believe there should be fewer knobs. i believe i shouldn’t have to remember which knobs to tape over every time i launch a new product. i believe for almost every use case, a single subset of the knobs is sufficient. i believe that when the day comes this is no longer true, it should be just as easy to peel off the tape. aws is easy, and is fun, and (egress aside) is cheap thanks to scale-to-zero and spot. i believe this more every day.
