00:00:09,450 --> 00:00:12,690 almost everything in the cloud costs money. 3 00:00:13,020 --> 00:00:17,280 So whenever you create a new resource, assume you are going to pay for it. 4 00:00:17,460 --> 00:00:22,590 There are some exceptions, for example, resource groups that we discussed before which are absolutely 5 00:00:22,590 --> 00:00:23,010 free. 6 00:00:23,010 --> 00:00:26,310 And there are also some additional resources that are free. 7 00:00:26,520 --> 00:00:29,250 But in general, everything costs money. 8 00:00:29,700 --> 00:00:32,640 Now there are a few pricing models in the cloud. 9 00:00:33,060 --> 00:00:36,960 There is a pricing model in which you pay per resource. 10 00:00:36,970 --> 00:00:41,150 For example, if you create a new virtual machine, you pay for this virtual machine. 11 00:00:42,010 --> 00:00:45,120 Another pricing model is power consumption. 12 00:00:45,570 --> 00:00:48,800 That means that you are not paying for the resource itself. 13 00:00:48,810 --> 00:00:53,880 For example, function up, which will discuss, of course, later, and for which you are not paying 14 00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:59,120 for the creation of the function of what we do pay is for using the function up. 15 00:00:59,130 --> 00:01:04,100 So whenever we make a call to the function up, we pay a very small amount. 16 00:01:05,180 --> 00:01:07,740 Another pricing model is reservation. 17 00:01:08,070 --> 00:01:14,160 With a reservation we can pay upfront for the resource with a commitment of using it for a certain amount 18 00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:14,590 of time. 19 00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:21,240 For example, we may commit to use a virtual machine for three years and for that case we pay upfront 20 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:25,080 for three years and get a hefty discount on the price. 21 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,530 Now, the rule of thumb here is quite simple. 22 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:32,580 Always check the resources cost before provisioning. 23 00:01:32,580 --> 00:01:38,100 So before creating a new resource, always check how much you are going to pay for it. 24 00:01:38,490 --> 00:01:43,110 And if it's too expensive, then always check for more cost effective alternatives. 25 00:01:43,500 --> 00:01:48,000 For example, when possible and available, look for reservations. 26 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:55,140 Some resource types allow reservations, which, as we said before, is an upfront payment with discount. 27 00:01:55,320 --> 00:01:59,380 And if that might fit your needs, then definitely use it. 28 00:02:00,220 --> 00:02:07,650 Now, the prime way of figuring out how much a service is going to cost you is using the actual calculator. 29 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,160 And this is a link to the calculator. 30 00:02:10,170 --> 00:02:11,730 And let's take a look at it. 31 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:15,490 So click this link and let's go through the calculator together. 32 00:02:16,440 --> 00:02:19,610 So here is the actual pricing calculator. 33 00:02:19,950 --> 00:02:26,040 And what we see here is basically the list of categories of services with a feature that services or 34 00:02:26,040 --> 00:02:28,590 the most popular services displayed here. 35 00:02:29,070 --> 00:02:35,530 And we can simply click the resource we're interested in, fill in some parameters and decide the cost. 36 00:02:35,970 --> 00:02:38,070 So let's begin with virtual machines. 37 00:02:38,310 --> 00:02:40,110 So let's click this. 38 00:02:41,360 --> 00:02:46,790 And now the actual pricing calculator will add it at the bottom of the page, so you click The View 39 00:02:46,790 --> 00:02:52,250 and here we are in the virtual machine section of the actual pricing calculator. 40 00:02:52,550 --> 00:02:56,210 Now we need to fill in what exactly we are looking for individual machines. 41 00:02:56,480 --> 00:02:58,850 So first, let's set the region. 42 00:02:58,850 --> 00:03:02,420 As we said before, Ridgen can affect the pricing. 43 00:03:02,720 --> 00:03:08,530 So in my case, I'll go for West Europe, which is a region I will use across this course. 44 00:03:08,690 --> 00:03:14,120 You, of course, are free to use whatever region you want, preferably one that is close to you. 45 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:20,600 So after selecting the region, we will go for the operating system and will select the correct operating 46 00:03:20,600 --> 00:03:21,360 system for us. 47 00:03:21,530 --> 00:03:23,180 I will leave it with windows. 48 00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:24,890 The type is always only. 49 00:03:24,890 --> 00:03:28,690 I do not want any preinstalled software on this Vitol machine. 50 00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:36,350 I will also stay with the standard tier and then I need to select the specific instance type of the 51 00:03:36,350 --> 00:03:37,150 virtual machine. 52 00:03:37,550 --> 00:03:44,780 So the default here is an instance called detA V three, which offers me to use and eight gigabytes 53 00:03:44,780 --> 00:03:47,930 of memory with 50 gigabyte temporary storage. 54 00:03:48,320 --> 00:03:51,310 So just for example, let's leave it this way. 55 00:03:52,580 --> 00:04:00,760 Now, I also can select how many hours this virtual machine will be operating in a month now in Asia, 56 00:04:01,010 --> 00:04:05,270 the default number of hours per month is seven hundred and thirty. 57 00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:10,530 So, again, because I want to get a monthly estimation, I will leave it as is. 58 00:04:11,420 --> 00:04:13,990 And now let's look at the actual cost. 59 00:04:14,060 --> 00:04:20,420 So what I see here is for this virtual machine in this region with this operating system and of this 60 00:04:20,420 --> 00:04:27,650 instance type, I'm going to pay one hundred fifty four point seventy six dollars per month. 61 00:04:28,070 --> 00:04:35,620 Now, there are additional five cents here because as you assumes, I'm going to use storage account 62 00:04:35,630 --> 00:04:39,140 quite extensively now because the cost of it is quite low. 63 00:04:39,140 --> 00:04:40,520 I will leave it as is. 64 00:04:41,570 --> 00:04:46,430 So this is the final price I probably going to pay for this machine. 65 00:04:46,640 --> 00:04:53,400 But remember, we talked about reservations, so here I can select my salvation. 66 00:04:53,420 --> 00:05:01,070 And if I decide that reservation is good for me, then I can opt for the three use reservation and now 67 00:05:01,070 --> 00:05:08,240 I can see that the price went down substantially and instead of 154 dollars per month, I now I'm looking 68 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:12,980 at one hundred and five dollar point sixty three cents per month. 69 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:19,850 Now, if I decide that I don't really need the Windows operating system and I can do with Linux, then 70 00:05:19,850 --> 00:05:23,740 the price will go down even more and even more substantially. 71 00:05:23,930 --> 00:05:29,780 And now for the very same machine on the very same region, I am going to pay only thirty eight point 72 00:05:29,780 --> 00:05:36,920 forty seven dollars per month, which is extremely low compared to the original price that we looked 73 00:05:36,920 --> 00:05:37,110 at. 74 00:05:37,700 --> 00:05:44,270 So as you can see, there are many factors that affect the price and you should always choose the most 75 00:05:44,270 --> 00:05:45,150 cost effective one. 76 00:05:45,170 --> 00:05:50,630 So if, for example, you don't really need the Windows operating system and Linux will do, then go 77 00:05:50,630 --> 00:05:51,110 for it. 78 00:05:51,500 --> 00:05:57,650 If you can use a smaller instance and for example, you don't really need the eight gigabyte of memory 79 00:05:57,650 --> 00:06:00,160 and you can do with less than that, then do that. 80 00:06:00,470 --> 00:06:07,400 And of course, if you can also can commit to three years reservation, then again do that, it will 81 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:09,260 save you a lot of money. 82 00:06:10,340 --> 00:06:12,000 Now, let's look at another example. 83 00:06:12,020 --> 00:06:13,270 So that was virtual machine. 84 00:06:13,280 --> 00:06:17,570 And now let's look at as you cycle again. 85 00:06:17,570 --> 00:06:19,950 We will go in-depth with Analytical later. 86 00:06:20,090 --> 00:06:23,760 I just want to show the calculation of the price of it. 87 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:27,140 So, again, let's pick the region. 88 00:06:27,140 --> 00:06:29,960 I will go for West Europe, as usual. 89 00:06:32,180 --> 00:06:38,100 Here I will pick a single database with regard to the back storage deal. 90 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,720 I will leave it, as is all the rest. 91 00:06:40,730 --> 00:06:42,100 I will leave again as is. 92 00:06:42,410 --> 00:06:45,420 And as you can see, the price here is quite high. 93 00:06:45,740 --> 00:06:53,200 So here we are looking at one thousand five hundred sixty one dollars per month, which is a lot. 94 00:06:53,990 --> 00:06:58,810 Now, one way to bring down the price is to pick a smaller instance. 95 00:06:59,390 --> 00:07:02,900 It a different instance of actual sequel is eight vehicles. 96 00:07:02,940 --> 00:07:05,540 Let's say I can do with two vehicles. 97 00:07:06,050 --> 00:07:09,260 So we see a substantial decrease in the price. 98 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:16,490 And if also I can go for a reservation, I can see immediately that the price without even more. 99 00:07:17,060 --> 00:07:21,880 Now, actually, there is even a better way to bring down the price of a sequel. 100 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:30,890 So if instead of the British model of vehicle, I will go with you and I will stay with the basic idea 101 00:07:30,890 --> 00:07:37,100 and find it use, then we are looking here at a ridiculous price of less than five dollars a month. 102 00:07:37,490 --> 00:07:42,830 So of course, later we will discuss what exactly is it to you versus Vikor purchasing model. 103 00:07:43,070 --> 00:07:49,580 But you can see that there is a lot of margin here in the pricing of amusical, and that is the same 104 00:07:49,580 --> 00:07:50,990 also for other resources. 105 00:07:51,740 --> 00:07:54,690 So that was about the Azrael calculator. 106 00:07:54,980 --> 00:08:00,860 I highly recommend to always leave it open and before creating new resources in Asia, you'll pay a 107 00:08:00,860 --> 00:08:07,100 visit to the calculator and make sure you pick the most cost effective option of the resource you are 108 00:08:07,100 --> 00:08:07,970 going to create. 11540
