Gee... if only there was a service where you could spin up machines on demand. (joke) I kinda worked backwards from the cost. I ran the business for a year on Azure but each 'sample' of the resample took about 2 mins so it precluded any near real-time analysis. I ported the kernel to a GPU locally using python/numba and it ran in about 10 seconds and that was enough to seal-the-deal. From there, I spec-ed out a GPU server and then machines that matched each role in my environment. I decided I was willing to spend $50K and just started loading up the machines.
