TL;DR: AWS is powerful - but unbearably complex and expensive for early SaaS.
Miget gives you unlimited apps inside one fixed guaranteed resource plan - predictable pricing, no cloud architect required.


Why Miget Is a Better AWS Alternative (for indie SaaS & small teams)

AWS gives you every service imaginable.

But to deploy a simple SaaS app you suddenly need:

  • VPC
  • IAM rules
  • RDS
  • ECS / EKS / Lambda / EC2 decisions
  • NAT gateways
  • Terraform module hell
  • Logging services
  • Monitoring services
  • Billing alarms to survive

Miget flips this model:

  • Pick a resource plan
  • Deploy unlimited apps
  • Database fits inside the same plan
  • Done.

AWS costs more because AWS monetizes fragmentation

AWS makes you assemble cloud infrastructure like LEGO, and charges you for every brick.

On Miget, most SaaS stacks just deploy and run.

  • No NAT gateway surprise invoices
  • No per-Lambda execution cost anxiety
  • No 9 different SKUs for logs & queueing

Team Workspaces without seat tax

  • First 5 members free
  • Each additional → $5/user/month

Team growth shouldn't require cloud budget committee.


Final Thought

AWS is the final boss of cloud - powerful, infinite, industrial scale.

But early stage SaaS shouldn't start with a cloud architecture final exam.

Miget is the AWS alternative for the product building:

  • Unlimited apps
  • Postgres fits inside your plan
  • Predictable fixed pricing
  • Deploy fast without overthinking infrastructure
