Are there any cloud products that have hard $$$ caps? Even non-big 3. Any at all?

Seems like this is a huge dealbreaker. You cannot be expected to perfectly audit your side project for security. Suppose someone finds a remote code execution and starts mining Monero on it. Or someone just points a botnet at it. You could be on the hook for an unlimited amount of money.

Might as well just install Kubernetes on a monthly-fee VPS and pretend you're using GCP.



Yes, Azure lets you set a per-Subscription spending limit.

It boggles the mind that AWS and GCP don't offer a payment cap - for that reason alone, I wouldn't go near them for side projects.
