What's your definition of moderately big?
My website was on the news a couple of days ago and was doing 2200 concurrent users for a while without breaking a sweat. Cheap hardware. Server-side rendering. Multiple database calls per user to 2 different database clusters.
That doesn't say much without knowing what the site is about.
2200 concurrent users reading a static HTML page is not the same as 2200 concurrent users trying to make a plane reservation.

Which is exactly why I explained what I did, including mentioning server-side rendering (means not static HTML).

What about GCP and other providers?
when they're plotting %azure vs %aws, they should really be using the same range for both axes. then they could get rid of the dashed line that shows what the ratio is.
Their uptime has been rock solid and performance consistently great for the 2 years I've been with them.
I dare say most projects (even moderately big ones) would do just fine without the mega cloud.
