That's about the fully loaded cost of one engineer, and you may easily need multiple additional people to run your own hardware instead of using AWS.

That's fairly modest traffic and does not include cost difference for the compute and persistence layers. In case of GitLab their dev and ops office is in Ukraine so that difference on traffic cost alone would pay for 3 good ops people.
