   Shameless plug: Co-founder of Terrateam[0] here. We have flat rate pricing with unlimited operations and users. Terraform Cloud pricing is absolutely crazy. [0]: https://terrateam.io

    Not OP and don't know much about Terramate but I do know that stacks has a different meaning everywhere in the Terraform ecosystem. Super confusing!

    It took about a weekend all said and done. We're much happier with the Fly developer experience. $200 -> $90 a month is peanuts. But we're 100% bootstrapped and frugal.

    I don't have access to the bills anymore. Two AZs, RDS HA, bandwidth, and EC2 all added up. It's possible I could have cut down the bill. The initial motivation to migrate was cost, but at the end of the day we're just happy

    Definitely tiny but we're just overall happier with Fly. The migration in total probably cost us a weekend of work all said and done. We get a lot for free with Fly (observability, multi-region, etc.) so all in all a win.

    Author here. Some folks wanted the details on pricing. Pre migration, the Terrateam AWS monthly bill was about $200/mo. With Fly.io, we're paying around $90/mo.

    We saved about 50% of our monthly bill migrating from AWS to Fly.io. While Fly.io isn't cheap, it's certainly cheaper than AWS from my experience.

    Looks nice! Surprised something like this hasn't come out sooner. The AWS UI is a hot mess. Good luck.

    That stinks. In the future you can post to r/aws. Lots of aws folks read that subreddit and they are responsive.

    Agree 100%. I'm an SRE team of one and I'm looking for an additional team member. I've interviewed about a dozen people so far and one thing I've noticed is that a lot of young engineers do not know the basics. They real

    100% agree and it's nice to hear you're exercising your right as a consumer by boycotting Mailchimp. Having said that, can't Mailchimp do whatever they want? They're a company with their own set of rules and priorities.
