Instance and storage. Standard price with no discount.
- dekhn 8y agoI cannot recapitulate your claim: google is at the least 80% the price of AWS across both instances and storage, given a good faith, reasonable analysis (given the differences in config types and feature sets in the two services).
- user5994461 8y agoThis article from 2016 has good figures. Not much changed since then but could use a refresh with the newer instance types. https://thehftguy.com/2016/11/18/google-cloud-is-50-cheaper-than-aws/ https://thehftguy.com/2016/11/18/google-cloud-is-50-cheaper-... The basic instance n1-standard-1 vs c5.large is 80% more expensive on AWS. A shame AWS doesn't provide single core instances. Google gives 30% discount automatically on instances running for a full month. AWS has no such thing. That's enough to put them in different league. Anything AWS involving SSD or provisioned IOPS is abusively priced whereas Google simply has better performance on network storage and can attach any amount of local SSD to any instance.
