> Every problem can be solved by just giving AWS another $100,000 this month because we don't have time (and don't know how) to make even basically optimized software.
Don't forget the Java + Kafka consultants telling you to deploy your complicated "micro-service" to AWS and you ending up spending tens of millions on their "enterprise optimized compliant best practice™" solution which you end up needing to raise money every 6 months instead of saving costs as you scale up.
Instead, you spin up more VMs and pods to "solve" the scaling issue, which you lose even more money.

It is a perpetual scam.
