There are plenty of pricing cheat sheets out there, but we couldn't find a tool that would let us compare cloud providers while taking one-year or three-year EC2 reservations into account, or answer questions like "who has the best price per GB of RAM", so we built this. We'd love feedback -- what can we do to make this more useful?

- voltagex_ 13y agoPart of the template is showing - {{choiceCount}} server combinations Edit: https://github.com/scalyr/cloud-costs/issues/1 https://github.com/scalyr/cloud-costs/issues/1
- snewman 13y agoI think this was a side effect of the server glitch (see below) -- some of the JavaScript dependencies weren't served.
- jbigelow76 13y agoWhy didn't you include Azure in the comparison?
- snewman 13y agoWe'd love to see more providers included, with Azure near the top of the list. If you'd like to contribute, all we need is a static data file -- see https://github.com/scalyr/cloud-costs https://github.com/scalyr/cloud-costs. Or see https://github.com/scalyr/cloud-costs/blob/master/linode.js https://github.com/scalyr/cloud-costs/blob/master/linode.js for an example.

- chaud 13y agoSadly serverbear is abysmally slow every time I go to use it. It would be a great tool otherwise.

- trailfox 13y agoThe tool doesn't include any of the c3 and i2 instance types yet.
- snewman 13y agoHave you seen pricing for the i2 instances? Amazon doesn't seem to have posted it yet. I'll look into getting the c3 instances added.
- okrasz 13y agoTry http://www.cloudorado.com http://www.cloudorado.com - it takes one and tree year reservations if you choose longer subscription durations (expandable panel).
