Why is it >6x cheaper than the same EC2 instance? Is it because they know that no one will just have it constantly run it as a true server like some do with EC2, so they'll get more fractional hours? Even though that's true to some extent, it doesn't seem like enough. Any insight? EDIT: Twitter ftw! Apparently, the prices are additive, not replacitive. http://twitter.com/mndoci/statuses/1442516630 http://twitter.com/mndoci/statuses/1442516630
