There are various differences, but the price differences are incredibly stark and what the article is really about.

Most optimistic AWS bill: $48 list price (and $300 effective price, because neither storage nor network traffic is included in $48) (and, to add insult to injury, AWS is obviously not giving you the same bandwidth as an actual disk, not even half of it, about one third)

Most optimistic Hetzner bill: 19.49 euro (including storage, yes, without backup, including network traffic), 40 with redundancy.

And even though AWS comes with some redundancy by default, for actual redundancy you need a double deployment (or $600 per month)
