I've also been thinking about that! I wonder if https://archive.org/web/ is an alternative though, as in could I pay them so they could mirror it for a 100 years?

Yep - it seems to depend on the architecture too (e.g. companies that lift-and-shift to the cloud use VMs heavily). We're discussing ideas on https://github.com/infracost/infracost/issues/730 , e.g. could

Co-founder of Infracost here, happy to help with integrations if needed. Regarding smaller cloud providers, someone from our community is adding Scaleway, such providers usually have pricing that is an order of magnitude simpler than AWS&#x

Pretty cool to see companies create new teams focused on cloud efficiency, seems like they're going beyond using traditional cloud cost management tools by trying to create a culture of cost awareness in their eng teams. We're try

An S3 bucket has over 50 cost components, it took us a good while to map the pricing to Terraform parameters so everyone can understand that when they run `terraform apply`: https://github.com/infracost/infracost/b

This looks very cool! I'm seeing a new wave of cloudnative CI/CD tools. What's your take on Terraform vs Pulumi long term?

That's cool, I had seen https://cloudcraft.co but BrainBoard seems to be taking things to the next level. We're seeing the need for cloud price and cost information to be available in other products and are happy to ex

that's a cool idea, who would benefit? consumers I guess? They'd be able to compare or even just understand what they're about to pay for (either direct or via insurance).

I've seen many companies user "terminator" scripts that shutdown/delete things that aren't tagged as "keep" or something like that, though only in non-production accounts. The budget alerts from the cloud

I'm wondering if people would find it useful to see the cost of using opensource projects that spin-up resources in their AWS accounts before they run `terraform apply`? Or maybe a repo shield/badge in the readme? (the idea came f

How do you take pricing into your design considerations? Does it come with experience from using an AWS service in production and understanding how it's priced, combined with the usage numbers the new system might get? I'm trying

They might change their 128MB rounding-up structure but they already had per 1ms pricing with the minimum execution time and memory for a single function execution being 100ms and 128MB respectively. (Google do per 100ms and have 6 pre-defi
