AWS vs Ultiblob

The math, with every assumption visible.

Run a real workload through the calculator. Typical TCO reduction: 35–55%. The savings aren't from a magic discount — they're from removing shared-tenancy overhead, NAT-gateway data charges, managed-service surcharges, and the operational headcount AWS implicitly assumes.

Side by side

What you trade, what you gain.

Ultiblob isn't trying to be AWS. We're trying to be the better choice for the 80% of dedicated workloads that don't actually need 30+ global regions and pay-by-the-second elasticity.

FAQ

About the comparison.

Is this the real Ultiblob pricing?
Yes. The Pro tier (16 vCPU · 64GB · 1TB NVMe) is $649/mo at annual commitment. The estimator uses the same tier math. The AWS column uses public list pricing with 1-year RI discount applied.
What's not included?
Egress on Ultiblob is included up to tier cap (we warn, don't bill, at 80%). AWS egress is shown at $0.09/GB list. Both columns include compute, storage, monitoring, and standard managed support.
Will my workload fit on Ultiblob?
Almost certainly. Workloads up to ~20k req/sec sustained, ~50TB hot storage, and 8× H100 inference fit on standard tiers. Higher capacity requires a Scale-tier quote.
What about reserved instances or savings plans?
AWS 1-year reserved instances are pre-baked into the comparison (the more favorable case for AWS). 3-year RIs would close ~10% of the gap but lock you in further. Ultiblob's annual commitment carries the same gap as 1-year RI does for AWS.
