Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Pricing appears to be cheap, however, it is extremely difficult in calculating what something will cost."
  • "It has helped to reduce costs with infrastructure."
  • "EC2 pricing is somewhat transparent, in that AWS provides pricing for all instance types. However, the number of pricing options can be confusing."
  • "For our usage, the cost is approximately $20,000 to $23,000 per month."
  • "There is a license required to use this solution and we pay on a monthly basis."
  • "The price is reasonable, but there is definitely an opportunity to lower it in instances which are of a higher configuration, because they have been typically used for the long term."
  • "Amazon EC2 has a pay-as-you-use cost model."
  • "The clients have found the billing of Amazon EC2 good, but the price could be less high. There is a monthly subscription to use the solution."

    Overview

    Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) is a web service that provides secure, resizable compute capacity in the cloud. It is designed to make web-scale cloud computing easier for developers.

    Amazon EC2’s simple web service interface allows you to obtain and configure capacity with minimal friction. It provides you with complete control of your computing resources and lets you run on Amazon’s proven computing environment. Amazon EC2 reduces the time required to obtain and boot new server instances to minutes, allowing you to quickly scale capacity, both up and down, as your computing requirements change. Amazon EC2 changes the economics of computing by allowing you to pay only for capacity that you actually use. Amazon EC2 provides developers the tools to build failure resilient applications and isolate them from common failure scenarios.

    StackStorm is a powerful open-source automation platform that wires together all of your apps, services and workflows. It’s extendable, flexible, and built with love for DevOps and ChatOps.
