Cloud Cost Comparisons

Cloud pricing only makes sense in vertailu. On its own, a $0.096 hourly rate tells you nothing; the same kuorma might kustannus $0.04 on a competing palveluntarjoaja’s spot market or $0.07 with a 3-year reservation. This section collects head-to-head vertailus that put equivalent services side by side, so you can see the real kustannus difference at a glance.

How to Read These Comparisons

Every vertailu table on CloudCost uses the same columns:

• Service — the equivalent instanssi, tallennus, or network service on each palveluntarjoaja.
• Specification — vCPU, memory, and local tallennus, so the vertailu is apples-to-apples.
• On-demand hinta — the published list hinta for the baseline alue (typically us-east-1, East US, us-central1).
• Reserved / committed hinta — the hinta with the most common 1-year No Upfront commitment, so you see the realistic steady-state kustannus.
• Notes — caveats such as free tier eligibility, egress rules, or feature differences.

Available Comparisons

• AWS vs Azure — Compute — general-purpose VM families vertaillad across on-demand, 1-year varattu, and spot pricing.
• AWS vs GCP — Storage — S3 versus Cloud Storage, with per-GB tallennus, request, and retrieval pricing.

More vertailus covering databases, networking, and the Alibaba Cloud ecosystem are added regularly. If there is a vertailu you would like to see, open an issue on the GitHub repository.
