I think "free or low cost tier that doesn't rack up a $100,000 bill" would be pretty common actually, enough to warrant a prominent preset template/option in their UI. They'd probably save a lot in support requests too.

There is no such thing as a “free or low cost tier” in AWS. Or at least there wasn’t before July 15th of this year when they actually added a free tier where you can’t go over $200.

There are services that give you a free year and there are services that give you a free amount every month.

If you want AWS with training wheels, use AWS Lightsale
