The Cloud Cost Handbook is a free open-source community-supported set of guides meant to help explain the complex pricing of public cloud infrastructure and service providers in "plain English." This guide is open for anyone to contribute their knowledge to the community. Vantage employees will maintain hosting the guide for everyone and ensure that content is relevant and adheres to style guides.
The Cloud Cost Handbook is organized into two sections: general concepts and per-service pages.
