Graph 19: Comparing e-FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> with Amazon prices (St<strong>and</strong>ard M/L/XL instances – Windows)<br />
By taking into account the Amazon prices the median e-‐FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> per core hour (basic case) is less expensive <br />
even than the 3-‐year reserved instances. Therefore it is less expensive in all cases. <br />
The average e-‐FISCAL <strong>cost</strong> per core hour (basic case) is more expensive compared to the prices of the reserved <br />
instances but less expensive than the on-‐dem<strong>and</strong> instances. <br />
