Today, AWS Application Discovery Service introduces a public API to estimate the cost of running your existing on-premises servers in AWS.
The AWS Application Discovery Service Amazon EC2 instance recommendations feature analyses the configuration of each server, including server specification, CPU and memory utilization data. The compiled data is then used to recommend the least expensive Amazon EC2 instance type that can handle the existing performance workload. Based on your business needs, you can choose additional preferences such as billing options, target AWS Region, EC2 instance type exclusions and the CPU/RAM sizing (average, peak, percentile) to further optimize your EC2 instance recommendations and associated costs. Fee estimates do not include any taxes that might apply. Your actual fees and savings depend on a variety of factors, including your actual usage of AWS services, which may vary from the estimates provided in this report.
This feature is available in all AWS Regions where AWS Application Discovery Service is available.
