How the rates are calculated?

Basically rates are calculated based on number of instance, storage and data transfer rate.
Each cloud provider operates its own proprietary infrastructure and every one of them has their own set of pricing plans.
We can measure bandwidth in MB and storage in GB, but there’s no standard unit of computing - providers measure hours or seconds of processing, but each processor configuration is different - making it all-but-impossible to compare the cost of hosting your application from one provider to another.
