I'm dismayed to see AWS ranked so high, but this is probably realistic. I think the service is expensive and overkill. Very difficult to engage their "free" trial without going over the allocations and incurring costs. The amount of complexity added to hide away this or that platform piece is wearying. I've spent some time with AWS tutorials as well as the Google platform during coursework, but have settled on a less-expensive independent (Linode) for my personal use, going the route of getting a more solid understanding of Ubuntu/Linux platform and direct use of the tools used for hosting. Whether this will be considered transferable to businesses that have locked themselves into AWS solutions and jargon, well, I'm not optimistic. (I should be able to, in theory anyway, build more affordable solutions for smaller businesses. We shall see how this works out.)
