How AWS is Still Egregiously Egressing

Last Week In AWS

This week Corey is at the helm for a small rant on AWS’s data transfer story. He reflects on CloudFlare’s blogpost from earlier this year on how AWS charges, and their egregious mark ups. Corey dives into the findings to bring out some important details about what exactly is still going on when it comes to the indefatigable nature of those charges. Markups as high as %8000 percent, the benefits of running AWS services yourself or from something a partner provides for you from the AWS marketplace, the predatory nature of some of these charges, and more! Thanks for tuning in to Corey’s rant!
