Tag: AWS Pricing Calculator

Today, we’re excited to announce the enhanced AWS Pricing Calculator that is now available as a public preview feature within the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console. The new capability provides accurate cost estimates for new workloads or modifications to your existing AWS usage by incorporating eligible discounts. You can now save time and improve the accuracy of cost estimation for migrating workloads from one Region to another, modifying existing or planning new workloads, and planning for commitment purchases. To get started, login into the AWS Billing and Cost Management Console and click Pricing Calculator under the “Budget and Planning” section in the left navigation, or go to the pricing calculator page and click the link “Log in to the AWS console to estimate your costs incorporating your discounts.”

To ensure the most up-to-date pricing estimate experience available in one place, AWS is ending support for the Simple Monthly Calculator (SMC) beginning March 31, 2023 at 11:59PM Pacific Time, and recommend you take advantage of the AWS Pricing Calculator. To assist with the transition, a conversion feature will be available until December 31, 2023 11:59 PM PST.

AWS Pricing Calculator now supports the ability to bulk import Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances, dedicated hosts and Amazon Elastic Block Store (Amazon EBS) volumes using a structured Excel template. The new feature will allow you to estimate a fleet of EC2- or EBS-based resources at a fraction of the time and allows for quick iterations.
