Cloud Cost Calculator
Estimate monthly and yearly cloud infrastructure costs for AWS, Azure, or GCP. Calculate costs based on instance count, vCPUs, RAM, and hours of use.
How to Use the Cloud Cost Calculator
- Enter the number of instances.
- Enter vCPU count and RAM per instance.
- Enter monthly hours of operation.
- Select your cloud provider.
- Click Calculate to see monthly and yearly costs.
Use Cases
- •Estimating cloud infrastructure budget for projects.
- •Comparing costs across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
- •Planning cloud migration cost analysis.
- •Justifying cloud spend to finance teams.
Formula
Monthly cost = Instances × (vCPU × CPU rate + RAM × RAM rate) × hours/month. Yearly = Monthly × 12.
Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are these estimates?
Estimates are approximations. Use official pricing calculators (AWS, Azure, GCP) for precise quotes including storage and networking.
Which cloud provider is cheapest?
GCP often has slightly lower compute prices, but actual costs depend on region, discounts, and usage patterns.
What are on-demand vs reserved rates?
On-demand rates are pay-as-you-go. Reserved instances offer 30–70% savings for 1–3 year commitments.
