Biggest issue with everything on AWS or GCP is still the bandwidth costs... $0.09 down to $0.05 per GB just kills most live production service use cases.
Weird pricing. Way more expensive per TB than d2s (existing hard drive instances), and only a bit cheaper than i3s (which have blazing fast NVMe SSDs).<p>Assuming partial-upfront reservations:<p><pre><code> d2: 41$/month/TB
h1: 135$/month/TB
i3: 153$/month/TB
</code></pre>
You also get more memory per GB with the i3s. Hard to see why anybody would choose these instances without a significant price cut.
