- shikhar 2y ago(Founder) I understand the concern. However, cloud discounts at scale can be very large, and we are going to share as much of it as we reasonably can.
- everfrustrated 2y agoDiscounts require multi year commitment for minimum (and increasing) spend. Generally you need to be either profitable or a well funded startup to demonstrate why a vendor would trust your ability to pay (it's literally a debt on your books). How do they know you're good for it? Plus multi cloud means less scale and less marketing incentive (can't talk about you as a x cloud customer). I wish you the best, but would encourage you to not set your prices below your costs.
- shikhar 2y ago(Founder) Thank you for the advice. I hope we can offer better when the deals come into play, but for now setting our planned internet egress price to $0.08/GiB.
- srik 2y agoCloud services offer giant discounts sometimes and the receiving party aren't allowed to talk about it concretely so that's probably what's happening here.
