> There is no concept of private addresses in IPv6, which means farewell to the Managed NAT Gateway and its magnificent pricing.

Maybe not in AWS, but there are Unique Local IPv6 addresses in fc00::/7 and NAT66 if you really love NAT!

Yeah, I was referring to AWS; I should have made that clear. ULA is frequently discouraged though, and NAT66, well ... just no.

I just recently heard that MS apparently has built everything IPv6 on Azure around NAT. This is so weird.

It’s the most Microsoft thing possible. That way they can charge you! How else are they supposed to rent seek?
