      We are in the process of inheriting a project whose development our client outsourced to another company, and the sheer excess storage they have for the user files one of the APIs handles confused us at first. We asked them about it, and their reply was accompanied by a shrug. It's not much, until your factor in how little data users have uploaded since launch. Idk why they are already paying for that much. May as well give us and therefore me that money.

    There's another consideration why cloud is popular: cloud costs can be accounted as operational expenditure (opex). This simplifies accounting and reduces a company's income tax.
    Although it leads to lower profit in the long run, it can juice short term profit and keep investors happy for the next earnings call.

      AWS is paid month to month. I calculated that for cloud computing of 1 Ryzen 7 1700 (I know, not a server, just stick with it) of 8 cores, 16 threads at 3.2ghz, it would take exactly 1 month of 100% uptime to just pay for the parts yourself. Doing the scaling of nonconsumer grade servers, I can't imagine that aws would ever be cheaper than DIY, even with paying your architects $1m/yr each. Especially after 5 years. Plus tax breaks.

    I work at a rather large games company. We rent rack space at three Datacenters with ca. 6000 VMs running on idk how many HVs. Moving to the cloud now would be extremely expensive because our games are built yeah in a way that would be very expensive in the cloud. But we have a disaster recovery plan which involves spinning up a replica of our own infrastructure at AWS anytime we want. It would be supa mega expensive and would not be viable for long but better than like not having our games online :D
    Other publishers in our Group use fully managed AWS and pay small sums even compared to self-hosting. And they partly have more players than we do. Thats why my company is trying to figure out how to build new games in a more cloud-friendly way.

    As someone who holds a Masters degree in computer science and has been in the business for over 14 years I call tell you “running your own because it’s cheap” is not a good solution. Cloud is expensive? Yes, but it takes a huge burden out of your team.
    I have worked in all sorts of projects, from bare metal, hybrid and all cloud, and there are advantages and disadvantages to all of this, but running your stuff has huge drawbacks and embedded costs that most people don’t think about. What about backup, data encryption, disk and hardware replacement and hardware monitoring? What about managing disaster recovery plans? You need a whole crew just for that, and if you want competent people, you might as well spend a lot of money that could just go to cloud. If you are a very small company it’s probably a good idea to run stuff in house in the beginning, but in the long run you want to move to the cloud. It’s just more efficient.

    This video is missing a huge point: Cloud gives you some super exclusive tech at a fraction of the price that it would take to stand it up yourself. If you are building a fault-tolerant world-wide accessible app with local regional edge availability (say a backend for a phone app that works globally) it would take you millions to match AWS performance and reliability. Also, their DB master-replica technology is pretty amazing that, again, would take some very expensive hardware+licenses to implement locally.
    So, for applications like that, it would take SIGNIFICANT economies of scale before self-hosting becomes cheaper.

      The one thing I don't get is what the heck are people doing to complain about egress costs? If you consider something like Kick which uses AWS, then you should be kicking your behind with those egress costs because you are streaming actual video to your audience. But for 99% of businesses it's just plain text and you can transfer a heck of a lot of plaintext for cheap. So I don't really know what these guys are doing. All the resources are or should be allocated in CDNs which have different egress rates specifically made for the purpose of serving media. People are losing braincells, or are dumb to begin with.

    I've recently started to wonder how peer-to-peer file sharing would work for cloud computing. For example with something like Netflix, when you stream a show as you download the content you'll begin to upload it again to the next viewer. The show could stayed cached a bit longer so that it can seed as much as possible. That way a streaming service would just host a UI, some torrent links, and seedboxes for when the leechers outnumber the seeders. In theory that'd save energy because the viewer's device is already on, it'd save bandwidth for the company as they biggest stress would be the seedboxes which is still significantly less than hosting everything, and it'd lower latency because you could download from a neighbour instead of a server across the country or even the continent.
    Torrenting obviously wouldn't work for a database since those are heavily personalized but I think whoever can make a legitimate legal and secure streaming service that uses torrenting will be a very rich person. They could pay more for exclusive licenses, undercut their competitors, and still take home a wider profit margin.

      It won't work because ISPs can fuck over the chain in quadrillion ways. Especially since a lot of them separate "external" IPs from "internal" ones, so things like IP banlists become meaningless for large enough ISPs. This kind of setup also requires extra fiddling on user's end, which majority of won't bother.
      "Streaming" on torrents already exists, that's what "sequential download" in torrent clients is. And guess what, it promotes hit&run behaviour and will get you locked on any relevant tracker, so no one has made billions off it yet.
      It's a general illusion of grandeur related to P2P for some reason. Just because a P2P network can have big numbers in throughput stats, doesn't mean this entire throughput is freely available to any given participant at any given time. In a P2P network the "competitors" are the 20% of participants who make said network valuable in the first place, so this get rich quick scheme is self-defeating in its core.

      At some point when the cloud spending exceeds the staff salaries, that is when reconsidering cloud becomes forgotten due to how long for many companies to cross that line.
      I hate to say this but usually, the people that prefers cloud to on prem or a much more plain providers like OVH or Hetzner assumes on the efficiency of wasted resources when not used. In my opinion, that is valid but what these people often forgot to detail is how their software is often modelled after the cloud specific service that made it cost efficient while also expensive should they grow with it because it is designed like that.
      Traditional infrastructure providers fits well with most use cases but many simply thought of cloud as start small and grow anytime. While I do agree their numbers began small, it is not the realistic expectation to depend on a cloud as there isn't an infinite resources one can obtain which plays really well for the cloud provider to recommend to reserve availability, which is absurd since this somewhat resembles the traditional hosting models where unused resources aren't an issue anymore since you intentionally want it to be there to be used at any point of time.

Just watch a youtube tutorial and 1 click in the cloud platform manages 1 -5 hours of configuration for you. The downside: you code only fits this one cloud provider. Especially if we are talking about infrastructure as code. This has 2 side effects: 1) Things randomly stop working because you are hitting tier limits of things you did not even knew they had cost associated limits, 2) the cloud provider now is your personal mafia and can crank up the prices as they like. With your code custom tailored to the cloud provider's platform you are not going anywhere.

    it seems to be similar to microservices addiction...people start designing their applications in Microservices & start putting the infrastructure cost & then get into some cloud like AWS or Azure or GCP & then declare that they have created a marvelous design for sustainable product but that product never kicks-off properly to recover the cost of that design even ...and I feel that is another truth of cost over shooting for max projects.

    RepoCloud is kind of a middle ground solution. Cheaper version of Vercel/Netlify for some stuff.

    Cloud only makes sense for small startups, where a server monthly rental has lower up front costs than purchasing your own hardware. But once the profits start rolling in purchasing your own HW is much more cost effective. You don't even have to host it on-prem. You can host at a private data center. Called private cloud.

      At the very large end, you are in a better position to negotiate pricing where you can host your stuff on a cloud provider and where you can also negotiate for stuff like dedicated 24/7 support

    I understand all the points and I agree with most of them, people need to be very mindful about how they use these things.
    But opening your own data center and implementing all the APIs and automation as well as making sure it is reliable, highly available, cross-region, ... .
    I promise I hate all those companies more than anyone, but if you know what you are doing and you fight BS in your company, you will be able to host things relatively cheaply on those services.
    Most high-bills issues I've seen are due to the company not caring, rather than AWS having high prices (there are cases for sure that they have outragous pricing/charges).
    I'm all for open market and competition, but we can't just suggest that the cloud doesn't help, or it is as trivial to open your own data center.

    I tried few cloud option and the best one for price is Contabo.
    BTW all depends how much effort you wanna spend on maintaining your infrastructure. If you need some storage (NAS) the best option is an Hybrid Solution but you need a good connectivity.

    Cloud is for initial days. If business successfull, enough cash flow, start building your own cloud, leaving the geographic scaling part to AWS. The Kafka and web servers can be aws. One can have in house DB and other micro services.

    All jokes aside, it actually makes sense to say cloud serivce is not meant to be cheaper but more convinient. It is almost impossible to justify the monstrous bills for cloud service, but it is very convenient to use.

    If you were to write a bot that could manually scrape the data from a server and manually copy it to another server for you, you could escape the egress trap, because you are just accessing the data, not moving it.

    Only 1 y.o.e. in software here, but my previous experience as mechanical engineering never let me trust in cloud services completelly. In fact me and my team only trust in bare metal where you control everithing (unless you are a fast pace high throughput startup). My first experience with cloud was in an AWS learning/contest. Main lesson learnt: free tier means 20 bucks in your card... Much later a client wanted to implement a project in Azure, and I can believe they prefer pay 700 usd/month than to include another team member (here in LATAM that is too much cheaper) wich seems to me that the trap is set by the bussiness people themself
