Our 100mbit line is $1,000 a month and our cage is like $3,000 a month. EC2 is much more than that per month... not sure exact number but probably over $1,000. also, EC2 is slower.

Wouldn't EC2 be cheaper, more expandable, quicker to set up? 100 new servers? Wouldn’t EC2 be cheaper, more expandable,
