    AWS and Azure are services

    A lot of people seem really confused by this, based on the number of downvotes.

      Amazon Web Services

      I don’t think people know what AWS means, it’s literally in the name.

        They also keep thinking I’m talking about the services they provide, and not, you know the actual fucking servers those services run on. Surprise, the servers themselves also need an operating system and the “server” you create is a Virtual Machine that lives on their actual, physical server and its OS.

        Every day I learn more about how people don’t actually understand how the internet works.
