that's some nice info, thanks for sharing pling. It makes me curious to try and compare costs with other IaaS platforms.

- pling 12y agoI would do. There's a sweet spot somewhere and Azure isn't it.
- chton 12y agoDon't forget to also compare the costs to doing in-house hosting. The cost effectiveness of any platform is dependent on how you use it, and (as pling discovered) a cloud host isn't necessarily the best option.
- cpard 12y agoI agree with that, although I believe that it heavily depends on where on your product roadmap you are. For early stage MVPs where you care for quick validation, I believe that in-house hosting is not a very good option, maybe a PaaS environment is more suitable for these cases, e.g. Heroku. But in any case, I think that everything is related to the product, the team and what you are trying to achieve. Of course in every iteration you should re-evaluate your strategies.
- chton 12y agoI agree completely. It's important to weigh all the options, and include issues like vender lock-in, SLA and future requirements.
