They are totally different from big cloud. Like 6 cores and 256GB memory for 150€&amp;#x2F;month (one older server I have there).&lt;p&gt;Of course these don’t scale dynamically. And you don’t just create copied of the servers. And they don’t have 100 security certifications like Azure&amp;#x2F;AWS. And no data centers in every jurisdiction.</text><parent_chain><item><author>rb808</author><text>Buying your own Physical hardware is so cheap now its crazy. A commodity Ryzen 16 vCPU box is about the same price as 2 months rent on EC2.&lt;p&gt;I get maintenance, electricity and bandwidth isn&amp;#x27;t free but I honestly thought cloud server prices would be much lower by now. No wonder AWS is making huge profits.</text></item></parent_chain></comment><story><title>AWS EC2 General Price Cut</title><url>https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/ec2-price-reduction-for-ec2-instance-saving-plans-and-standard-reserved-instances/</url></story>
