Translating in-house VM costs to IBM Cloud Costs
If you are planning on migrating internal VMs to IBM Cloud then the first step is to determine the closest equivalent cloud templates for your on-prem VMs.
Akasia CloudView reduces your cost calculation to 2 simple steps and under a minute by automatically presenting the closest equivalent templates in SoftLayer, and the costs associated with the templates.
Akasia CloudView also calculates hidden cloud costs arising from IOPS and network bandwidth utilization that are typically free on-prem, but incur charges in the cloud.
View the ongoing costs of your existing VMs if they were to migrate to IBM Cloud – Baremetal or VPC. Compare these costs to the ongoing costs of running the VMs in other clouds.
