Hi,

Can anyone with experience of hosting a Flex front end on the EC2 cloud, let me know estimated costs please. We are looking at 200-300 users, if I categorise usage it would be light occasionally medium.

Any help appreciated, as it very confusing looking at the EC2 price lists.

Regards

Dilip

Here's an Amazon resource that will allow you to calculate costs. Are you looking to host both your web applications and an instance of ArcGIS Server or just the web app piece?

Amazon Cost Calculator

I would think if it's only your web app and it's a Flex app you wouldn't need to beefy of a server since the heavy lifting is done by the client and ArcGIS Servers.

This is an older ESRI white paper on estimating cost.
