How much does it cost to place a server in the cloud?

Cloud computing is great. If you need more HD, CPU or memory, with a few clicks you can adapt your server to meet the demand. All of this with little or almost no input. And when the fire subsides, you can lower the CPU, memory, or disks to save a bit. Having said that, few companies are willing to share a large amount of capital in the purchase of equipment, dedicated Internet links, disk RAID, or even a good UPS with a power generator. Simply because it makes perfect sense to host everything you need in a professional data center and pay for hours of resource use.

There you can specify how many servers you need, how much CPU, memory, disks, database services, load balancing services, and a multitude of things. With this calculator it is easy to calculate your costs. But if you need help understanding how the calculator works, take a look at our Cloud Computing course.
