Well, for us it's actually really cheap because we really just want the compute. The bandwidth is just a bonus.

Actually, since the Akami acquisition it would be even cheaper.

$800/mo to serve 100TB with fairly high bandwidth and low latency from cold storage is a good deal IMO. I know companies paying millions a year to serve less than a third of that through AWS when you include compute, DB, and storage.

Fine, but now you’re changing the comparison. Spending millions on compute with low bandwidth requirements doesn’t make it stupid. It probably still is, but that’s a different conversation.

lol no, it sure is. But OP didn't give a price range or durability requirements...
