The title should have been: AWS Lambda Works as Expected – An Application Architectural Bug [pdf]
If the designer expects a reliable system that guarantees processing of the request after the return of the status, they cannot rely on a server to not crash the moment the response was sent to the wire. Serverless enforces this well, yet people try to force their view of infinitely reliable infrastructure, which is not based in reality.
VPS (even with a super basic CMS ready set up) and managed web hosting with integrated editor are completely different products. If you want to make comparisons,
look at WordPress.com, 1mb.site, Wix, etc.
How so? I can have a preinstalled WordPress with a quality theme such as Astra with Elementor and I am done in less than 5 minutes and $4. It is pure laziness not doing it this way and waste of money/time. Not to mention unreliable as you trust another company not to jack up their price. If a price change happens to a VPS you simply move to another cheap hosting for a $3-5 per month with your own WordPress.
OVH also has SoYouStart which is around $2 per month. I also remember getting yearly commitments and under $3 per month deals. You have to subscribe to their email blasts to get these deals but $3-4 per month is average for the industry.
There is also Digital Ocean which is around $4 per month. I've been using them for over a decade. Not even one time down. Sometimes I see deals under $3 per month. https://www.digitalocean.com/pricing
What does it have to do with S3? Average webpage with JS will weight at about 200kb per initial load, without images. Do the math how many page views and indexing bots will consume before the real user can even find the page.
Are we talking about the volume of the event horizon? If I understood it correctly, the total of the mass of a black hole is in its singularity. The volume of the event horizon will depend on the total mass of the black hole.
Oh I just mean when comparing (A) block hole in a black box, vs (B) a non-black-hole start of the same mass, B will likely be over a large volume, and hence will produce different spacetime curvature.
The pricing does not seem to be competitive with services like Cloudflare, given that you also charged for bandwidth. A little disappointing since I was considering using them for some of my projects. I hope there will be features in the future to give them a more competitive advantage. Otherwise, I love it!
