Take the tour ×  I'm a software/web developer and for the first
time I have to set up a cloud system to host one of the websites
I have coded. I found very difficult to estimate the costs for
an Amazon EC2 cloud system using the provided calculator. I have
absolutely no idea of how much traffic the website will have,
especially because I have to calculate the traffic for the
database (Amazon RDS), static resources (Amazon S3/Amazon EBS)
and normal page requests (Amazon EC2). Also, I don't know
whether a micro instance will suffice or if I need a small or
maybe more.  The only data I have is:    • Number of predicted
users per month   • Average amount of time spent on the website
per user   • Predicted peak number of people online at the same
time  What is the best way to estimate the costs? Is there a
tool or something that allows to run the website and capture all
the data useful to estimate the costs (i.e. DB traffic, static
resources traffic, etc.)?  The website is coded in Java Spring.
Any experience on
