    Methodology and assumptions

    Worked example: 2 t3.medium instances × 730 hours × $0.0416 per instance-hour = $60.74 monthly for compute. Compute cost = instance count × billed hours × the selected hourly rate. This estimate excludes storage, data transfer, public IPv4, CPU-credit, tax, and negotiated discount charges. Currency is calculated in integer millionths of a US dollar, then displayed to cents.

    Insights compare every instance type in the current dataset at your instance count and hours, using published T3 specs (vCPU, memory, baseline performance) and the T3 Unlimited surplus-credit rate of $0.05 per vCPU-hour for Linux. The Fargate figure applies current Linux x86 Fargate rates to the same vCPU and memory. For steady 24/7 fleets, model a commitment with the EC2 Savings Plan calculator or the Reserved Instance calculator; for containers, see the ECS Fargate calculator.
