It's sometimes very frustrating the poor UX AWS forces on its customers. If you read the post, they have made the high-speed network available, but you can use it only if you use the AWS cli.<p>> Enhanced networking cannot be managed from the Amazon EC2 console. [1]<p>AWS (and other cloud providers) charge a huge premium compared to smaller dedicated and VPS providers and yet the customers need to suffer things like this and that too when the product has been available for around 11 years.<p>The complexity of AWS billings system is astounding. Setting the billing alarms is somewhat easy now (using the budgets features), but still needs some careful reading about the options available.<p>It seems like the ease of use is near to the bottom for AWS product managers.<p>[1] <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/enhanced-networking-ena.html" rel="nofollow">https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/enhanced...</a>
I wonder how that changes feasibility of running cacheless workloads against S3. So far this been a challenge in terms of performance as you can hit throughput cap fairly quickly.
