I’d say $500k per year on AWS is kind of within a dead man’s zone where if you’re not expecting that spend to grow significantly and your infra is relatively simple, migrating off may actually make sense. On the other hand maintaining $100K a year of spend on AWS is unlikely to be worth the effort of optimizing and maintaining $1M+ on AWS probably means the usage patterns are such that the cloud is cheaper and easier to maintain.
