Ask HN: Why there's no AWS domain or Azure domain
From my point of view, having 5 or 10 company email addresses can make an impact where you start your cloud-based side-project. Why most cloud providers don't implement that as an entry point?
Given:: 1. You have an idea 2. You register a domain 3. You setup email 4. You setup your build your app 5. You deploy your app
... why don’t AWS and Azure compete with GoDaddy to capture these leads?
Google App Engine used to offer this and it’s didn’t result in a viable business.
I’m sure AWS and Azure have considered the same and concluded the quantity and/or quality of leads was determined too low to justify the investment.
