> The Azure pricing is at least as complex as AWS/GCP, plus the pricing tool seems worse. They also lag behind the other two major providers in CPU releases - Turin and Granite Rapids are still in closed preview at the time of writing this.

Small nitpick, but Turin-based VM's have been available for more than a month now [1], and they are a beast.

The testing was from mid-September to mid-January, Turin was released on Azure end of January. They simply did not make the cut, unfortunately I could not wait forever for them, they always seem to lag behind at least half a year :(

I might do an addendum just for Azure...
