Or have my job, switching periodically between on all that stuff and the end application. Make sure the tools you make are actually useful for the problem they purport to solve!

We just refuse to use vendor-lock-in cloud crap as a matter of principle. Regular server processes (though Haskell), regular machines (the NixOS), PostgreSQL, no problem.

Must be nice, I'm surrounded by zombies that are either RDD or truly naive. Most of the ecosystem this org works with really doesn't make sense for "cloud." Most of it should be internal infrastructure for an entire host of reasons aside from occasionally using EC2 instances for special case bursts of computing demands. Instead theres an obsession with AWS with no solid rationale.

Sorry to hear that! It's a real shame when people contort themselves to give Bezos more money.

How about AWS Lightsail instead of EC2?
