Quick EC2 Pricing Chart 03-09-2013

Posted on Saturday, March 9, 2013



These prices were updated 03-09-2013

The change this go around was a drop in the yearly contracts for some of the ec2 instance types.    Anywhere from 13-23% savings.




   Types


EC2 comes in several types.  They come in different sizes and in linux/windows flavors.  Their CPU power is listed by EC2 Compute Units, “One EC2 Compute Unit provides the equivalent CPU capacity of a 1.0-1.2 GHz 2007 Opteron or 2007 Xeon processor.” [8]  Here  are the current types and cost per hour on the East Coast Facility (N. Virginia) 01/24/2012.

MONTHLY costs


I prefer to think of the monthly 24x7 costs of servers so I calculated that with this chart   (price*24*31)  24 hours a day 31 days in a month.

Yearly Rates


You can also pay a one-time fee for a “Reserved” instance.  A reserved instance does two things,  it guarantees you a spot for your server (should a zone get full… a rare thing) and it also lowers your hourly charge for running the server.

There are a few different options for the upfront costs, light medium and Heavy.   One year or three year contract.    For these calculations I assume a heavy usage (24x7) and only a 1 year contract.

I am also only going to go over the Linux prices here.
