Companies like Hyper [1] should be put on notice.<p>This is a surprisingly unique product. AWS ECS and GKE both require some form of management of the underlying VM. A lot of that management is abstracted away, but not in the same way this is.<p>That being said, pricing [2] seems odd. At $0.0000125/GB_Second and $0.001/Core_Second, lets say you want to replicate an Azure A3 instance (4core/7gb/$130). That would cost... over $10,000/mo. Is my math right on this? It can't be.<p>For one-off jobs, maybe this makes sense, but as the backbone of a Kubernetes pool or something I'm not so sure.<p>[1] <a href="https://hyper.sh/" rel="nofollow">https://hyper.sh/</a><p>[2] <a href="https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/container-instances/" rel="nofollow">https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/details/container-...</a>
