Graph 9: Comparing e-FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> with Amazon prices (Cluster Compute Quadruple XL instances – Linux)<br />
It is evident that both the median e-‐FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> <strong>and</strong> the average e-‐FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> (basic case) per core hour are less <br />
expensive than the prices of both on dem<strong>and</strong> <strong>and</strong> one-‐year reserved instances. <br />
As for OVH, the comparison showed that the OVH prices per core hour except for the S instance are higher than <br />
the average <strong>cost</strong> core hour calculated for the total e-‐FISCAL sample. However, the median e-‐FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> per core <br />
hour is lower that all three analysed services offered by OVH. <br />
