In my experience enterprises do not want to pay for excellent software, simply because it is expensive. I would love to work on software that was:

- in more than two AWS regions

- required screen reader / disability support

- required multi-language support

- required multi-cloud

- actually needed a big Hadoop cluster - most enterprise data processing can be done on a MacBook Pro M4.

As someone who has had to deploy services in every AWS region, of every AWS partition, I fantasize about two regions being sufficient.

My second major project at $ENTERPRIsE was 15 years ago and incorporated the first 4 (well multiple servers on different continents, why would I care about AWS)

It was internal shadow IT at its finest. It’s still used today, despite the people at the top not liking it the users think it’s the best thing since sliced bread.
