AWS Base Cost Estimation #171

Open o6uoq opened 4 years ago

o6uoq commented 4 years ago

After using TFLZ and Terraform Enterprise, TFE allows for some basic cost estimations however it does not work for all the things.

Is there an easy way to estimate or create as a feature request to baseline the costs of a standard vanilla TFLZ installation with all accounts, logging, VPCs, etc? I appreciate there would be some deviation however I think there would be value in knowing what a base cost per installation (or at the very least, a starting price point) would be.

Thoughts?

@o6uoq I think it's a good idea to put a price tag to any terraform module in general, and this module in particular. As you said, there are options out there like Terraform Enterprise Cost Estimation or CloudCraft that would be helpful here short term. All you need to do is decide your specific list of landing zone components and feed them into above mentioned tools that provide the cost estimation. Longer term, I believe we can think through and analyze the feasibility of such a feature . Thank you for your input and we'll definitely consider it.
