No one ever got fired for doing backups. It's "industry standard" so if you don't do it, you'll be out of your job faster than the server which went down. Backups being actually restorable in a reasonable amount of time isn't "industry standard", so nobody cares.

I'm German (born, raised and lived in Munich) and I do not associate "Läuft wie geschmiert" with bribe. To me it has only one meaning, which is "running smoothly". In this context I'd guess the person said that Linux runs smoothly and from a technical point of view there is no reason to switch to Windows.

I'm not sure that this blows the client away tbh. I had much more success with being critical but within reason. If a client suggests a feature I do not believe will work or is not worth the time, my approach is to agree that this is technically possible and it will take X amount of time with Y drawbacks (e.g. harder to maintain in the future, manual effort later on). And then I'll tell them my opinion about it from a business perspective. I don't push in any direction and make it clear that if this is what they want, I'll get to work right away.
But then again, I only work with clients who appreciate feedback and don't think of me as a person turning coffee into code ;)

It makes all the other pages look like pure marketing slang. So instead of counting domains or gigabytes, they count outgoing emails. How is this "radically different"?

SEEKING WORK - Vienna, Austria - Remote preferred - no traveling
10 years+ of shipping software (PHP, Python, Javascript, Dart). I have worked with multiple databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Google Datastore) and on different Cloud providers (AWS; Google App Engine; DigitalOcean).
In the past, I've worked as both a solo developer implementing and improving software applications as well as supporting a team of developers finishing their application. I have a strong focus on clean code and automated tests and work with two companies helping them improve their code quality.

If you are running on Heroku or Google App Engine, you don't have a server as well. AWS Lambda abstracts the concept of a server even more, but yeah...
I also think the costs are pretty high. Of course I have no idea how much traffic and requests where calculated, so I am just guessing. As cloudfront and S3 do the heavy lifting, a cheap server or two for actual editing of the content should be enough. And they don't need to scale on the same level as there won't be that much changing for customers, so paying more than 10,000$ for that with 100.000 customers seems pretty high.
But I get what the idea behind it was, and it seems to work pretty good. Also nice to have really low costs in the beginning :)
