Cameron HaightAs we’ve observed from the major virtualization platform providers, we are now starting to see more cost and TCO calculators for cloud computing. Amazon has had one for awhile. Here’s another that compares Amazon to an on premises solution. This tool appears to be a generic SaaS versus on premise evaluator. Rackspace/Mosso seems to have developed a calculator comparing their Cloud Files enabled with Limelight’s CDN with Amazon’s S3 and CloudFront. I’m sure more of these will arise. Key is of course to a) fully know of any underlying assumptions and b) ensure that in any comparative analysis, an apples-to-apples approach is being used. I’ll be on the hunt for more of these but feel free to let me know if you stumble across any others.
