> getting as much as possible out of a system for cheap is great fun In certain circumstances, absolutely, however it's extremely aggravating to be in the position of being constantly pestered to ship features faster without the authority to overprovision some of the infrastructure the software runs on. Waking up in the middle of the night because we saved money by allocating too little disk for the primary database or because the latest release included new dependencies that increased memory usage and the OOMKiller is picking off web servers like a wolf in the lamb's pen, or we're just swapping our way to hell while web requests 502...eh. Not for me. More visibility into costs, though, absolutely agreed. Engineers should know that when they turn on some new cool serverless gizmo and then forget about it, it's costing $ each month.
