You can, and if you want to use Lambdas, you can also route to them from ALBs, which has a bit confusing of a pricing model for comparison, but has no per-request cost.

Software and the control plane is the razor, compute resources are the blades. Amazon's software is its loss leader.

Wouldn't be hard for him to follow up with "to prove it was you, sign X with the sending private key" if there are multiple claims.


A quick search for Jasper Kuria (the author and submitter) on LinkedIn explains the slobbering over Bing -- he was a software engineer at Microsoft.

I asked Paul Graham if I could use the Hacker News stack and he said it was okay since it is open source.


Oh, I did not know that either. Do you know where one may find the source ?


Ah, I see, I had no idea it was open source! Thank you for the information.
