Cloud Providers Pricing
I want a time series dataset of cloud provider pricing for storage, compute, databases etc
Research
https://redmonk.com/rstephens/2018/07/13/iaas-pricing-patterns-and-trends-2018/ - has a link to a google spreadsheet https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1BrXfyq-u9nTDy-HS43G4lYFZ6Yej1hUSnj17kIRdcUk/edit#gid=0
S3
6 components to their pricing: Storage Pricing, Request Pricing. Data Tranfer (bandwidth) pricing, Amazon S3 Storage Management Pricing, Cross-Region Replication Pricing, Amazon S3 Transfer Acceleration Pricing
Amazon S3 prices over time:
$0.15 (before 2010) - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/what-can-i-say-another-amazon-s3-price-reduction/ $0.14 (2010) - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/what-can-i-say-another-amazon-s3-price-reduction/ $0.09 (2012) - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/amazon-s3-price-reduction-december-1-2012/ $0. 03 (2014) - https://aws.amazon.com/blogs/aws/aws-price-reduction-42-ec2-s3-rds-elasticache-and-elastic-mapreduce/
@tomvachon i came across your excellent https://www.stayclassyinternet.com/articles/investigating-AWS-pricing-over-time/ I wondered if you'd be willing to share your thoughts and perhaps the spreadsheet of data you collected
Just came across y-combinator backed https://www.taloflow.ai (launched 2021) - they do some of this automatically for you.
Sure do! There are so many variations of the data based on region and tier that if you're using this as a decision tool we gave vendors relative rankings depending on the storage type https://www.taloflow.ai/cloud-object-storage/pricing-guide.
For a full ROI comparison (like with hard numbers) we're launching a tool next week to give that data.
@austinpena-taloflow so can you share the raw data (openly)? That would be great and still provide a lot of room for you to add value and provide a service ... (and it would be great to have historical data ...)
PS: and thanks for jumping in and responding 🙂
@rufuspollock I'll bring it up with the team! I don't imagine anything being made public for a few months though. I'll write back if I have good news 😊
