It's actually the opposite! To pick a representative example

    Current generation:
    m6i.large: $0.0960
    m6a.large: $0.0864
    m6g.large: $0.0770


    Previous generations:
    m5.large:  $0.0960
    m4.large:  $0.1000
    m3.large:  $0.1330
    m1.large:  $0.1750

https://rbranson.medium.com/rds-pricing-has-more-than-double... is a good example of using the generation abstraction to improve margins. Obviously, this source is not a price increase. It’s just increase in premium over EC2.

https://redmonk.com/rstephens/2021/12/17/iaas-pricing-2021/ Is also great and shows a flatness in price

AFAIK AWS have never increased prices on any specific product offering.

Your overall point still stands, agree you have to have a plan for the day your vendor decides to put the squeeze on (and that can take many forms).

I’m fairly confident they usually raise prices through new generations of compute instances.

You do not even have to hold a variety of Vanguard funds, just figure out the year you aim to retire in and buy the target date retirement fund.

Target Retirement Funds sometimes hold non-ideal amount of cash. Also, make sure you are holding these in a tax-advantaged account https://401kspecialistmag.com/target-date-fund-providers-inv....

Not if the recent Oracle vs Google supreme court ruling is to be acknowledged.

DocumentDB is to MongoDB 4.0+ as Dalvik runtime was to JVM.

Here is their 4.0 compatibility update: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/documentdb/latest/developerguide...

Time will tell...MongoDB 4.2 APIs are under SSPL

"Amazon DocumentDB implements the Apache 2.0 open source MongoDB 3.6 and 4.0 APIs by emulating the responses that a MongoDB client expects from a MongoDB server, allowing you to use your existing MongoDB drivers and tools with Amazon DocumentDB."

https://aws.amazon.com/documentdb/

IANAL

Kinda blocked on the compatibility front after the 4.0 API though, eh?
