It would be nice if you set up an ELB that all application endpoints behind it become non internet routable by default.

Its bad devops but still, there is no need for the underlying EC2 to be accessible to the internet if it is placed behind a load balancer.

That is my old guy yelling at clouds moment for today.

Migrated the final on-prem server to EC2 tonight.

It was in my quarterly goals but I really think the move in 2026 should be to bring as much of your infrastructure local as possible.

I feel like my gut is right more often than it isn’t around stuff like this. I guess we’ll find out.

If you use #AWS and #EC2 you must be rich or poor at #investing is what wholesale pricing tells us.

For just under about 100Gbit of data transfer look at how much the #cloud will cost?

It reminds of the time where people believed "pay per minute" on the cell phone was getting you better pricing.

Of course I cannot share our costs but we could sell multiple factors more bandwidth to our clients for $157K USD per month!
