A while back I tried to reproduce a Vercel enterprise invoice using logs generated by an external service. After multiple round-trips with their support team I concluded it is actually impossible to verify what was billed even remotely reflected actual usage. It's essentially an AWS reseller in the form of a random number generator attached to some horrific contemporary JS, that the brand is so popular speaks more to the state of the industry than it does the suitability of their product

Is it their random number generator or are the reselling that off AWS as well? Because have you tried to navigate AWS billing?

Have you tried to navigate AWS in general? Boggles my mind that they have built so much infrastructure on top of what is a truly awful UI.

I feel like I have Stockholm Syndrome because I really don't mind it, through granted I've now spent just about every day of the past year staring at a various AWS dashboard.

Overall I think AWS is one of the greatest products to ever come about in my lifetime, though I think one of their greatest fumbles is not getting AWS Amplified more right, they could have squashed both Vercel, Netlify and most other "resellers" like a bug.

horrific contemporary JS lol

It's straight up one of the smoothest developer experiences ever to exist.
