It’s not unreasonable to ask for a mechanism to not be billed thousands unexpectedly.

Cloud billing is not easy to understand.

I would know, I work for the part of AWS that calculates people’s bills.

It's not rocket science, either. I would know, I work for premium support.

Every time I see an unexpected bill of thousands of dollars, it's because the customer poorly architected their infrastructure.

People seemingly want the freedom of complete control without the responsibility that comes with having that much control.
