Their price&#x2F;performance for compute is not great and their per-node reliability isn&#x27;t any better than any of the above providers either. (Google compute has auto-migration on hardware problems so they score higher here, but still no IPv6.)<p>Amazon does have a great service ecosystem but most people don&#x27;t use most of it. I&#x27;d expect big-and-dumb &quot;enterprise&quot; IT people to pick a provider by picking the one with the largest features list and&#x2F;or the highest &quot;nobody ever got fired for&quot; score, but I&#x27;m surprised that startups do the same. All of the above providers support IPv6 out of the box and have for a while. One of the ways startups can win is by making first-handed technically-informed vendor decisions instead of going with the herd.
