Seriously? As another technical person, AWS architecture is an abomination. Poor to lacking documentation, inconsistent behavior across the board, possibly the worst GUI in the world that should be deprecated and replaced with a consistent CLI as the only means of interaction.

We need to go back to hosting our own servers. Not everybody is Google or some overfunded startup trying to hit an inflection point before they run out of somebody else's money. For 90% of people using AWS its overpriced overkill and a huge step backwards from VPSs and colocation.

You’re not supposed to be using the consul or the CLI unless it’s for testing or analytics. you should be using stacks, serverless, terraform, cloud formation for your actual infrastructure.

I hate Bezos, I dislike all the Chinese garbage on Amazon, but AWS is the best cloud hosting there is. Your other options are azure and GCP... so it’s not a tough fight.

Funny how all the research I did and the people I found have heavy links to Digital Ocean as well. My original post: https://thedonald.win/p/11PpU44mO4/exposed-voting-machines-amazon-c/
