Well hold on now. AWS has never, to my knowledge, increased prices for an existing service. They'll introduce new EC2 instance types that aren't as cheap as you were expecting, but the existing types you're already using don't get more expensive. Nobody gets hit with a price increase unless they choose to switch types. If you keep doing the same thing, you'll keep getting the same prices.
On the other hand, this Google BigQuery price increase is a real, honest-to-god price hike for existing customers. If you keep doing the same thing, the cost will change.
- Havoc 4y ago> AWS has never, to my knowledge, increased prices for an existing service. Really? Seems semi-plausible but still surprising
- klohto 4y agoAWS has never raised their prices
- tyingq 4y agoThey've consistently lowered them. But that makes sense, as they want as many companies to go all-in as possible. Because the egress is still egregiously high, there's terrific lock-in for big clients. They wouldn't raise prices until the exact right moment.
