Private cloud TCO calculator
One of the biggest promises behind the private cloud infrastructure is better economics compared to proprietary hardware and public clouds. Use the TCO (total cost of ownership) calculator below to estimate the cost of your private cloud infrastructure with Canonical or learn more about differences between various OpenStack distributions.

Canonical's managed services for OpenStack and Kubernetes allow to fully outsource cloud operational tasks to the Canonical's team of cloud experts. Managed services may be the best option during the initial phase of the private cloud deployment process, but under certain circumstances, they may be also cheaper than the self-managed option. Remember that the self-managed option on the right does not include the cloud operations team's annual salary.
* Canonical provides managed services only for OpenStack and Kubernetes deployments based on Juju charms that have been deployed by Canonical.
** Ubuntu Advantage Advanced will be included by default.
*** Includes Managed MAAS.
