A fledgling health-tech company is about to launch a new electronic health record system that will experience variable traffic. Before the workload goes live, the CTO wants to compare the projected costs of pay-as-you-go compute instances against commitment-based options such as Reserved Instances and Savings Plans. Which AWS resource should the CTO use to model expected usage and view the cost difference between these purchasing models?
AWS Pricing Calculator lets users create detailed cost estimates for planned workloads. During configuration, the CTO can enter expected usage, select On-Demand pricing, or model commitment options like Reserved Instances and Savings Plans to see how each affects the overall bill. AWS Compute Optimizer provides right-sizing recommendations only for existing resources, the AWS TCO Calculator compares on-premises costs to AWS rather than different AWS purchasing models, and the AWS Health Dashboard shows service-health information but no pricing data.
