Manually calculating costs sounds tedious; I’d probably go with the calculator instead, but I’m not 100% sure.

I feel like using historic costs from a similar workload could be risky if the environments are different.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think deploying a test workload could give some insights into costs, right?

Manually calculating the estimate based on the pricing information could be a good way to really understand the costs. Might take a bit more time, but could be worth it.

Using historic costs of a similar workload could work, but I'd want to make sure the workloads are truly comparable. Might be worth double-checking the details.

Hmm, I'm not sure if the pricing calculator will capture all the nuances of our specific workload. Deploying it to a test environment might give us a better sense of the real-world costs.
