Re:DotCloud updates pricing, uses new elastic pricing model by jwallz on Monday June 18, 2012 @01:45PM (#4127590)
i agree. i can't figure out this pricing. a simple slider like Heroku or Pagodabox would be much easier.

I can't get the examples to come out right. Looking at the 3rd one for $172.80, if i get out my calculator and crunch, it looks like it should be $112.32 to me.

(256 x 1) + (448 x 1) + (128 x 1) = 832 total MB RAM

at $0.006 per 32MB ram per hour you get $4.32 per month per each block of 32 MB

832 / 32 = 26 blocks of 32 MB RAM

26 x 4.32 = $112.32

what am i doing wrong here?

You're right the math is wrong on that one, but it isn't the only thing wrong. SSL is 160MB not 128MB. We will double check the numbers and fix it.

Thanks for pointing that out.
