Clem ent (@clement___10) reportedSelf hosting your email server is something that Is very tricky and I still can't grasp till today. The craziest part is not the setup but managing the email server reputation. I rather pay @Cloudflare or @awscloud.

Certified AI Dev (@MisterPrashant) reportedThis solution to this problem is AI traffic monetization. If you are an owner of a platform that provides some valuable data, you can put the data behind a paywall for the AI traffic by charging the bot fraction of a penny for using their content. x402 Payment Required protocol tells the bot that the content requires payment and the bot settles the transaction quickly on a stable coin at which point the content becomes accessible. This way,people running their search bots does not require subscription to 10 different services and can easily access data from anywhere at a very minimal cost and the owners of the sites also win as the traffic count to their paywalled site will generate income. This is not a concept. The framework to build this is already available in @awscloud today.

Soru Soran Adam (@SoruSoran_Adam) reportedI felt really bad when I switched from Azure DevOps to AWS. Why did AWS create such terrible interfaces for DevOps / Dev Teams ? Constantly defining permissions with JSON is so tedious. It'll take a little while to get used to it. @awscloud @Azure

Ryan Varghese Mathew (@RyanVarghese14) reportedHi @awscloud @AWS I am currently facing issues from regarding certain payments. And despite incessantly reaching out on the support team and the email, I have been charged and there has been no formal support extended. I know you guys can do better than this.

PositiveVibes (@KPTheFighter) reported@awscloud @AWS You guys almost gave me heart attack today morning. When saw the email from you with billing about $192 million, I got shaken up, frozen. Logged into dashboard , and saw same amount. Imagine what would have been the state of mind. This is not done!! Mistakes do happen, being in tech industry, I do understand that. But once you recognised that mistake, you did not have courtesy to send an email to all users asking not to Panic. That is not acceptable. Before one could reach to support page, his soul would leave the body. Immediately you should have put a banner on dashboard reporting about the potential issue and could have sent a next communication to users informing them. You didn’t do anything of that sort and left users in panicked state. This is so unprofessional. Really disappointed!!! You would have been responsible if anything tragic happened to me today just because of your negligence. A communication asking users to ignore the faulty email was due. You didn’t do that. Shameful!! #awsbilling #aws

Eimantas (@TidusLT) reported@awscloud Hello @awscloud, for whole month ive been using claude sonnet 4.6 and opus 4.6, spent quite good figure during the month, but when sonnet 5 released im getting error that i dont have permission to use this model. Same for opus 4.8. What is the reason i cannot use these models yet

paige s. (@PaigeSully88) reported@BenENewton @awscloud This isn’t human error. This is failed automation

SwarmOne.ai (@swarmoneai) reportedOpenAI just unveiled Jalapeño - their first custom inference chip with Broadcom. "Substantially better performance per watt." Interesting. But a chip doesn't fix a misconfigured serving stack. Custom silicon with default batching, naive routing, and untuned KV-cache management is still burning money. SwarmOptimizer doesn't care what chip you run. It tunes the deployment layer - batching, caching, routing, concurrency - where most of the waste actually lives. The silicon is one layer. The optimization is another. Now on @awscloud

Nexzul (@NexzulX) reported@awscloud @PreciselyData Bedrock only has Anthropic models and a bunch of obsolete open source models. You need to fix this.

Vijay Tupakula (@vijaytupakula) reported@Ed_13057 @awscloud it wasn't a problem for me, they accepted with in a few hours.

Wordy (@AnotherRadProd) reported@AWSSupport OMG... I was gonna have a heart attack! I haven't looked at this project for years and I can't even remember how to login!
-
Aaron Spiel 📣 (@SpielAaron) reported@AWSSupport It's not estimated. To quote the horrific emails you're sending people: "The month actual cost associated with this...". And yes, maybe it's easier to laugh and realise it's an error when you're potentially being billed $1,000,000,000. But when it's $80K, it feels scarily real.
-
Ironluca (@Ironlucaaa) reportedHeyo again @AWSSupport, thanks for fixing the issue! My bill is only $503 now. That's much better, it's okay now!
-
Okko Ojala @okko@mastodon.social (@okko) reported@edwarddonner @awscloud @AWSSupport Combine a bug like that and spending caps, and the services would have been taken down and caused major losses of services worldwide.
-
Edward Donner (@edwarddonner) reported@darkosubotica @awscloud @AWSSupport Thanks Darko. I'm keen to be involved. I'm aware there are challenges. A billing bug shouldn't cause a global outage or delete backups. I believe these are solvable. I don't want the possibility of financial ruin from a mistake or hack. Will DM.
-
Fikri Firdaus (@fikrfird) reported@awscloud This really isn’t something to joke about. A false billing alert at this scale can cause genuine panic and even serious health consequences. Some users may have rotated credentials, shut down workloads, or deleted services because they feared their accounts had been compromised.

S (@cloudsurf3) reported@awscloud Take down that other tone-deaf tweet, pure mockery of your customers
-
Ben (@ben_codez) reported@vijaytupakula @pushpak1300 @awscloud Problem is SES never approve me out of the sandbox and literally don’t tell me why. 🤷

Pratik Khasnabis ☁ (@softveda) reportedHey @AWSSupport your AWS Free Sandbox Environments launched with great hype doesn't actually start. Always gives an error code. Raised a ticket from builder support without any response so far. So much for the announcement.
-
Erin (@erinEncoded) reported@awscloud This is tone deaf. It wasn’t funny. It was upsetting. It reduced my trust in your systems, testing, and ability to roll back critical errors. I didn’t laugh. Why are you?

J (@kankerhoerrrrrr) reported@marcelocantos @awscloud you're a moron. it was a known, and widespread issue, and they even had a notice in the health dashboard. this is a skill issue.

Kishan (@Kishan200615) reported@AWSSupport Please help resolve this issue as soon as possible, as I urgently need my AWS Associate certification. If you need any additional information, please contact me. Thank you.

Nil (@slowalgorithm) reported@awscloud The LEAST you can do is to give some compensation. This mistake caused operational issues for several companies across the globe.

🔥 PHOENIXX🔥 (@AIPulse0) reportedAMAZON AWS PAYS $127K/MO FOR CLOUD COMPUTING. SERGEY BOUGHT CHEAP SERVER RACK + CLAUDE AI. MAKES $318K Pause at 0:11 — rack with 40+ servers. Every indicator glows green. This is local computing. Zero latency. Zero cloud bills. Sergey, 35, Ukraine. Was AWS architect, $7,200/month. Understands: companies pay Amazon millions, but they can do same calculations locally. Bought used server rack for $4,800. Installed Claude AI for local processing. 78 companies pay $4,077/month each instead of $12K on AWS. Amazon offered $4,200,000. Sergey said: "You profit from dependency. I profit from freedom." Why — in video.

Palpy (@evgenij_rabij) reportedTHIS COMPACT BOX COMPLETELY REPLACES MASSIVE ENTERPRISE AWS BILLS AND GENERATES OVER $19,500 IN NET PROFIT PER MONTH. While major corporations blindly bleed six-figure budgets every month on cloud storage like Amazon AWS or Google Cloud—paying for every single breath through API tokens. This 25-year-old engineer built a business model that completely flips the script. He designed and configured a standalone, ultra-compact micro-server that acts as a private, offline "AI Knowledge Vault," and right now, this single device is generating him over $19,500 in net profit every single month. The real magic is hidden in the expertly selected hardware and software packed into one small chassis: Massive Local Data Array: The engineer built a custom, enterprise-grade storage array with a staggering 144 terabytes (144TB of raw enterprise storage), using just six high-capacity 24TB hard drives. This allows massive datasets to be kept right at his fingertips. Ada Lovelace Graphics Muscle: Inside the micro-server slots an aftermarket NVIDIA Ada architecture GPU, dedicated entirely to local neural network processing and heavy, high-throughput media transcoding in real time. Who needs this kind of hardware in the internet age? The engineer struck absolute gold—he rents these systems out to top-tier Hollywood production boutique shops and independent media houses. Right now, the film industry is deeply paranoid about two things: data security and compute costs. When a studio works with confidential raw footage of upcoming blockbusters or high-budget commercial projects, uploading them to the cloud is a massive risk for leaks and NDA violations. On top of that, processing, automatically tagging scenes, and upscaling thousands of gigabytes of video through cloud-based AI services costs an absolute fortune in commercial token fees. This micro-server solves both pain points in one fell swoop: Absolute Privacy (On-Premise): Production shops process, index, and upscale their footage completely locally right inside their offices. Not a single byte of data ever touches the internet, bypassing cloud leaks entirely. Zero Token Cost: Instead of paying for commercial APIs from OpenAI or Anthropic, the system runs powerful open-source models deployed directly on the local hardware. The studio pays a flat monthly rental fee to the engineer, and the AI runs completely free 24/7. As a result, clients save colossal amounts of money from week one and break free from cloud monopolies, while the young engineer converts standard hardware into a stable, recurring stream of monthly passive income. Bookmark this case study—local infrastructure (Local-first AI) is the massive trend where fortunes are being built right now.
