Moving away from proprietary AWS services
The "bare metal" can be a VPS.
The "proprietary AWS services" are pushed hard to get lock in.
The are trade offs.
- drdaeman 3y agoYes, this also happens, the second scenario I've mentioned. But I've heard about moving away from virtual servers specifically, or only using those for the highly elastic parts when the load fluctuates a lot. Bare metal is simply so much cheaper in the long run, if you know how to work with it. Yes, it's rigid in terms of provisioning, but it's the baseline (all clouds and VPSes have bare metal underneath) so it gives the best bang for the buck.
