Aaah yes .... "cost per use".
Its not the favourite unit of measurement of the cloud salesmen for nothing.
"Come to my cloud" harks the salesman .... "look, X is only $0.000000001 a go, Y is only $0.00095 a go .... its so CHEAP".
I think we know how it all pans out. You / your company ends up with an eye-watering cloud burn rate.
Beware the double-edged sword as they say, "cost per use" is not the panacea ... apart from for the seller, perhaps.
- maccard 4y agoThat only happens if you don't compare cost of use in both cases. If the upfront is $100 for the other option, you should calculate what the cost per use is at 10k/100k/1m/10m/whatever uses, and estimate which of those you think you'll hit and make the decision based on that .
