AWS Calculate for the iPhone

Submitted by aallan on Thu, 09/04/2009 - 11:42.

Following on from my previous iPhone application which allows you to monitor the status of various cloud computing backend services, and continuing with the Cloud Computing themed applications. I'd like to announce the release of my next iPhone application onto the App Store...

AWS Calc for the iPhone and iPod touch.


Cloud Computing makes it easy to build applications that run reliably, even under heavy loads. But the larger the load, the higher your cost.

The AWS Calc application allows you to estimate your monthly costs based on your current Amazon Web Services (AWS) usage levels, and then lets you estimate how much a sudden usage spike could cost.

Another quick question

How does your app. react to changes to the pricing model? I'm presuming, with the advent of utility billing in the hosting arena, that providers will adjust their pricing models from time to time. Does the app. update itself with the latest cost per CPU cycle (for example) or is this left to the user to specify?

I am intrigued by your apps. they look very useful.
