AWS Credits vs Other Cloud Credits for Startups (What to Compare Before You Pick a Home Cloud)
Picking a home cloud can feel like choosing a long-term apartment on a one-month lease. The place looks perfect today, the move-in bonus is huge, and your runway is tight.

Done wrong, they can hide expensive defaults (data transfer fees, managed database costs, support add-ons), and make a later switch painful.
