Cloud Hosting Cost Calculator
Find the server you need and what it costs to run each month — across DigitalOcean, AWS, Hetzner and more. Know your running cost before you build.
Estimate hosting costWe size an application server, database, storage, CDN and backups from your inputs, then estimate the monthly cost on each cloud. Great for budgeting before you build.

How much does it cost to run your software?
Building software is a one-time cost; running it is a monthly one — and that's the question clients forget to ask. Hosting depends on how big your server needs to be (CPU and RAM), how much you store, how much bandwidth your traffic uses, and whether you need managed databases, a CDN and backups. This cloud hosting cost calculator turns your project type, user count and traffic into a concrete server spec, then prices it on every major cloud.
Use it as a server requirement calculator and an AWS / DigitalOcean / Hetzner cost estimator in one. Start cheap on a VPS like Hetzner or Contabo, and move to AWS or Google Cloud with a managed database and autoscaling once you cross tens of thousands of active users.
Common questions
How much does cloud hosting cost per month?
It depends on your server size, storage, bandwidth and whether you need a managed database or CDN. A small app can run for $5–15/month on Hetzner or Contabo, while a busy SaaS may cost $80+ on AWS. This calculator sizes the server from your traffic and users, then estimates the cost on each provider.
Which cloud provider is cheapest?
For raw value, Contabo and Hetzner are usually the cheapest VPS options. DigitalOcean and Vultr sit in the middle and are great for startups. AWS, Google Cloud and Azure cost more but offer managed services and global scale for enterprises.
What server do I need for a Laravel / SaaS app?
A small Laravel project runs fine on 1 vCPU / 2 GB RAM. A medium app with Redis and queues wants 2 vCPU / 4 GB, and a growing SaaS with thousands of active users typically needs 4 vCPU / 8 GB plus a managed database. Pick your project type and scale above to see the exact recommendation.
Do I need a CDN and managed database?
Use a CDN once you serve a lot of images or video, or get high/viral traffic — it cuts bandwidth cost and speeds up global delivery. A managed database is worth it for data-heavy apps (e-commerce, ERP, SaaS) where you don't want to handle backups, patching and replication yourself.
Are these prices exact?
They're indicative estimates to help you budget and compare providers. Real prices vary by region, instance type, reserved/spot discounts and managed-service add-ons. Always confirm on the provider's own pricing page before committing.
