This!
Also, from experience, going with a "smaller" cloud provider and opting for a dedicated machine can already reduce the bill by a huge amount.
The position of power of the big 3 - AWS, GCP and Azure* - gives them almost 66% of the market - that doesn't seem right.
- bshipp 4y agoI'm no expert, but I'm amazed how much server you can get for little money from a discount provider like Hetzner vs AWS. There's a large gulf between fully on-prem and using Azure/AWS that doesn't have the same personnel requirements. If business apps can be self-hosted on a dedicated box that's maintained by someone else, it's potentially a huge savings. At least, that's been my experience.
- unity1001 4y agoWith Hetzner VMs and k3s one could run a k8 cluster with amazingly low cost. There are even ready-made repos that make it lighting fast to deploy and easy to maintain... https://github.com/kube-hetzner/terraform-hcloud-kube-hetzner https://github.com/kube-hetzner/terraform-hcloud-kube-hetzne... Even Hetzner maintains a few repos for that: https://github.com/orgs/hetznercloud/repositories?q=kubernetes&type=all&language=&sort= https://github.com/orgs/hetznercloud/repositories?q=kubernet...
