I also would love to see a comparison done by a financial planning analyst to ensure no cost centres are missed. On prem is cheaper but only by 30 to 50%. That is the premium you pay for flexibility, which you can partly mitigate by purchasing reserved instance for multiple years.
- threeseed 3y ago> On prem is cheaper but only by 30 to 50% Depending on use case. If you have traffic which isn't consistent 24/7 then AWS Spot instances with Gravitron CPUs will be cheaper than on-premise. Because you have the ability to in real-time scale your infrastructure up/down.
