I own 15 OVH servers (32 GB RAM, 2 TB HD, quad-core), and the cost monthly is less than $1000. What can that buy more in Amazon? Maybe a huge instance? But I surely can't run thousands of distributed crawlers and store a distributed search index.
- gtaylor 13y agoYou can get some decent beef with the new C3 instances, but you have to pay a good chunk of the year upfront (called a reservation) to get the sane rates. If you do that, the prices are OK. But you don't come to AWS just for EC2 instances. You're there to combine their portfolio of services in various ways. Because of this, it'd probably be wrong to just compare $1000 on AWS vs what you are paying now.
