Does anyone else go looking on amazon because they used to have loads of stuff, but now there's just a few things over and over and over and they're not quite what you wanted. It's so full of promoted content and you keep thinking that somewhere on one of the pages there might be something new, but no, it's these same products again and again.

Haha, I thought this was a comment on AWS at first. Where everything service is just EC2s and S3 buckets in a trench coat that all do something slightly different than another service they offer.

I spent a few days ago hunting for a EC2 service that I was being charged for. The AWS budget said it came from "EC2 Services" which yeah, could mean anything.

Started by typing EC2 then clicking every single tab to find what was turned on. I finally found the service because there was a region filter, that let me find out that I was using a EBS that I left activated when I was goofing around in another region.

Yeah, the only thing more confusing than figuring out what service best fits your need is figuring out how it's billed.

Some services will spin up eight other things and all will look like separate things from a billing perspective, if you aren't careful with tagging/managing things.

Which, let's be clear, is not an inherently bad thing. Most sane people don't want to reinvent the wheel. If you have a foundation that works and can easily be built off of in a reusable way the. You ultimately end up saving a lot of time and money.

Now, going back to your dig, it is true that Amazon has too many similar services, a lot of which could have just been an offering under an existing service. If you offer a certification just for memorizing what all of your services do then you may have gone too far.

Yeah, I always hated that the foundational cert (or whatever it's called) is basically just "what service is this". The worst is that at the rate things change the info doesn't stay relevant for long.

Sagemaker has literally gone through tens of iterations at this point. Hard to keep straight what it does and doesn't offer.
