Calculating Cloud service costs can be complex and time-consuming, when all you want to know is the price from one provider. We believe there's an easier and faster way. We'll show you a simple method for getting an overview of your Netstream Cloudcosts.
Cloud computing costs are generally quoted per hour or even perag . Almost as frequently, costs are determined by the size or duration of an instance. There are certainly other variations as well.
The complexity of such Cloudpricing models is extremely high and sometimes quite difficult to understand. In addition, there are often hidden costs that are not immediately apparent. These include, for example, costs for inbound and outbound traffic or for other resources such asag, which are counted and thus lead to unexpected additional costs.
We strive to simplify this calculation as much as possible so that our customers get a clear overview of the monthly costs and can calculate them themselves at any time
