What are the main challenges of using hyperscalers?
Mid-sized businesses often encounter several challenges with hyperscalers, including opaque pricing structures that complicate budgeting due to usage-based billing and egress fees. Additionally, support is typically limited, relying heavily on self-help documentation and tiered service level agreements (SLAs). The tools provided are often over-engineered for global scale, making them difficult for smaller teams to manage effectively.
How does pricing transparency differ between hyperscalers and tailored platforms?
Hyperscalers generally offer medium pricing transparency, which can lead to confusion due to complex calculators and hidden costs. In contrast, tailored platforms tend to provide more predictable pricing models, allowing businesses to budget more effectively without unexpected costs.
What alternatives exist to hyperscalers for mid-market businesses?
Mid-market organizations may find purpose-built platforms, such as Cloud as a Business (CaaB), to be more aligned with their needs. These alternatives typically offer more hands-on support, clearer pricing, and a less complex experience, ultimately helping to reduce risk rather than shifting it.
