I know it should be only one, but these are all what I'm asking AWS

  1. Fix the fkn console's UI
  2. Remove the AWS/Amazon name mixing, keeping only Amazon.
  3. Make cost calculations simpler.
  4. Add better ways to prevent 60k$ bills, like having a "circuit breaker" that when you exceed X monthly expenses all services are shut down and an email is sent to you.

This is all by design.

But since we're piling onto the wishlist:

  • APIs that are feature-complete and not gimped in any way. For example, the Cloud Drive API never had the ability to delete files but you could manually delete files via the web interface.

Unfortunately, broken and incomplete AWS APIs is also intentional and by design.
