INTERACTIVE CLOUD PLANNER
A clearer starting point
for your infrastructure plan.
Adjust your own assumptions to estimate resource hours, facility energy and an illustrative monthly resource budget.
Formulas and boundaries
Unit-hours = units × hours. IT energy (kWh) = unit-hours × average IT kW per unit. Allocated facility energy = IT energy × PUE. Resource budget = unit-hours × compute rate + storage GB × storage rate + outbound GB × transfer rate.
PUE is total facility energy divided by IT energy. This simplified allocation assumes constant average power for the entered active hours and excludes idle and unallocated capacity. Resource rates may already include energy; energy is reported separately and is not added to the resource budget.
No tax, support, software licensing, migration, staff, backup replication, reserved idle capacity or fixed interconnect charges are included. This is not a complete TCO model. No performance, capacity or compliance guarantee is made. Inputs stay in your browser and are not stored by this tool.
