First I thought they were AWS lambda functions, perhaps possible if they are over-provisioned for very concurrency or something similar $25k/month is in realm of possibility.

But no, the the post is talking about just RPC calls on k8s pods running docker images, for saving $300k/year, their compute bill should be well above $100M/year.

Perhaps if it was Google scale of events for billions of users daily, paired with the poorest/inefficient processing engine, using zero caching layer and very badly written rules, maybe it is possible.

Feels like it is just an SEO article designed to catch reader's attention.
