And yet their infrastructure is hosted on AWS

Has any major tech company moved their infrastructure from AWS? Those things take time.

Unless you use a very limited set of features, you can't really migrate to anything else than another of the big American clouds. And maybe some Chinese ones, though I've never seen what they offer.

what do you mean? you can host a server in your garage

[โ€“] rikudou@lemmings.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I mean, you very obviously don't know what do these cloud services sell, so why even participate in a discussion you're not qualified to be in at all?

No, you cannot migrate your AWS stack to your garage server.

I'm sorry for wasting your time by asking a question while underqualified.

Oh, you're not wasting my time, I decided to waste it myself. I just don't understand how "you can host a server in your garage" is even a seriously meant answer to replacing AWS.

Like, at my day job I'm responsible for managing an AWS stack that costs the company upwards of $20,000 per month. And we're far from the largest users. You can't store that in a garage.
