Cloud was supposed to be a commodity. Instead it is priced like at burger at the ski hill.

If it is such a golden goose, then there will be other competitors come in and compete the price down.

  • not really, the API lock-in and egregious egress fees will keep competitors at the door.

    That: and trust is hard earned over a long tail which is harder if you are trying to compete on price.

    • I think trust is the biggest factor. If you willingly lock yourself into a vendor specific product, that is obviously your own choice.
