Cloud Functions for Firebase VS Spot.io

I tried to make a reddit like app. I used both realtime-database and firestore as database. The billing of the two is different from each other. I used realtime-database for frequently updated data (like or upvote, downvote count for ex.) and firestore for more stable and large data (post, comment, community and user data..). While doing this, I only used database rules, I did not use Cloud functions. So, I... Source: 11 months ago

All of this is on spot-instances. We used spot.io (I believe the product is called "Ocean") and they basically took care of all the backend logic to make spot-instances available for the ECS cluster. Source: about 2 years ago

Does cloud provider matter? I would say/think so. Not just cloud provider, but further more, how you set it up, which begets cloud provider. Are you setting it up with only the aws cli?
