This is the best post on this subject I've read in awhile. If you're building your application in a modern manner, half the stuff I see in ridiculous comparison posts shouldn't matter. Disposable infrastructure is a thing. If you're making a choice of "the best cloud" (k...) with that fact in mind you should mostly be considering cost over time and capability to innovate on core offerings. Given unit economics and the continual drop in price of commodity hardware, everything is going to become utility pricing, and services like lambda will help you optimize your costs. Personally I'd put all my chips on AWS over GCP.

Also, nice to see someone finally identify DigitalOcean as a B2C provider.
