Cloud Migration Cost Calculator

On-prem vs. cloud — what would you actually pay?

Compare the running cost of your current on-premises servers against an equivalent managed-cloud setup, plus a ballpark one-time migration cost and a 3-year total. Use it to frame the business case; we'll right-size the architecture so you don't over-provision.

On-premises / month

On-prem includes amortized hardware, power/cooling/space, and in-house admin time. Cloud is managed opex including identity and backup.

Cloud value isn't only cost — it's elasticity, resilience, and security. We model your real workloads before recommending lift-and-shift vs. re-platforming.

Estimates are planning-level ballparks using typical California SMB rates; they are not a quote and exclude licensing, egress, and compliance specifics. Actual cost depends on workload profiles, reserved-instance commitments, and data-transfer patterns. BUILDLAB provides cloud assessments, migration, and managed cloud operations.
