Cloud hosting cost calculator
Estimate your monthly cloud bill from the pieces that actually cost money: compute, database, storage, and bandwidth. Provider-neutral, no sign-up.
Where cloud costs really come from
Cloud bills feel unpredictable, but most of the money goes to a handful of things. This calculator focuses on those so you can plan a budget rather than get surprised by an invoice.
Compute
The servers running your app. A small app is happy on a single modest instance; high-traffic apps need more, or autoscaling. Leaving oversized instances running around the clock is the most common source of waste.
Database
A managed database saves you operational headaches but is a recurring cost that grows with size and redundancy. For small projects, a modest managed tier is usually the right balance.
Storage and bandwidth
Storage is cheap per gigabyte. Bandwidth (data sent out to your users) is the one that quietly climbs as you grow, especially for media-heavy apps. A CDN often reduces bandwidth cost while making the app faster.
Frequently asked questions
A small web app often runs $20–100 per month. Mid-sized apps with a managed database and real traffic usually land between $100 and $500. The calculator above adjusts for your setup.
Usually bandwidth, oversized always-on compute, and managed database size. Right-sizing instances and adding a CDN are the fastest ways to bring a bill down.
