Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Q: Is this tool truly free?

A: Yes, our Cloud Cost Optimization Tool is completely free to use, with no hidden charges or sign-ups required.

Q: How accurate are the cost estimates?

A: Our tool provides highly accurate estimates based on a simplified model of publicly available AWS EC2, EBS, and data transfer pricing. For exact billing, always refer to your AWS billing dashboard, as actual costs can vary slightly due to micro-usage, specific service tiers, or custom agreements.

Q: Can I use this for other cloud providers like Azure or Google Cloud?

A: Currently, this version of the tool focuses on AWS EC2 and related services. We are continuously working to expand our offerings to include other cloud providers in the future.

Q: What is the “free tier” for data transfer?

A: AWS typically offers a certain amount of data transfer out (e.g., 1GB) free each month. Our calculator accounts for this, charging only for data transfer above that threshold.

Q: What’s the difference between On-Demand, Reserved, and Spot pricing?

• A:On-Demand: Pay for compute capacity by the hour or second, with no long-term commitments. Most flexible but often the most expensive.

• Reserved Instances (RI): Commit to a specific instance configuration for 1 or 3 years in exchange for a significant discount compared to On-Demand.
• Spot Instances: Bid on unused EC2 capacity, offering the largest discounts. Best for fault-tolerant workloads as instances can be interrupted if AWS needs the capacity back.
