At that point wouldn't it simply be cheaper to do VMs?
- graemep 1y agoYes, very likely, but then why are you using AWS at all? I think a lot of people are missing a key part of the wording of my comment, that capitalised for emphasis "IFF" (which means "if and only if"). I am absolutely certain a lot of people would save money using VMs - or at scale bare metal. IMO a lot of people are using AWS because it is a "safe" choice management buy into that is not expensive in context (its not a big proportion of costs).
