i want to reorganize cost breakdown section and logic behind it. Here is how i see it:
we will add few additional system metrics - "storage cost fee, per GB" and compute cost fee per M points.
We remove profit margin constant.
Then in cost breakdown we will have 2 major sections - cost for our clients and cost for us to provide such service.
Cost for client computed like this: service fee + total storage*(storage cost + storage cost fee) + monthly data points * (compute cost + compute cost fee);
Cost for us computed like this: total storage*(storage cost) + monthly data points * (compute cost);
I also want to see monthly and yealry cost for the client.
And our monthly/yearly spending as well as our total monthly profit with breakdown for service fee,storage and compute.
So please based on this logic update the page calculator
thank you so much
I'll reorganize the cost breakdown section and update the calculation logic as requested.
I've completely reorganized the cost breakdown section and updated the calculation logic as requested. Here's a summary of the changes:
Client Cost Breakdown: Shows what we charge to clients
Our Costs: Shows what it costs us to provide the service
Our Profit: Shows what we earn from providing the service
This new organization provides a clear separation between client costs, our costs, and our profits, making it easier to understand the financial aspects of the service at different usage levels.
in 'Throughput & Capacity Metrics' make Monthly Data Points first and then storage metrics, RPS and events move to the end and make them grey (it is our internal metric and it is not something that user will look at).
Also between system constants user input & preset sections add small informative pricing policy for end users based on values that defined in system constants - total cost per million data points (single value which is the sum that also includes our fee) and storage cost per GB (that also includes our fee).
In client cost breakdown, do not show service fee (it is still included into totla cost but we do not show it in client cost breakdown), instead compute expected cost per device per month (monthly cost / devices amount).
I'll implement all the requested changes to the pricing calculator.
I've implemented all the requested changes to the pricing calculator:
These changes make the calculator more user-friendly by highlighting the most important metrics for clients while de-emphasizing internal metrics. The new pricing policy section provides clear, upfront information about our rates, and the cost per device metric gives clients a better understanding of their expected costs.
in a preet selction dropdown I want to show estimated monthly cost for clients and it should take into account latet system constants and user should see cost inside thedropdwon with a grayed color (probably preset name on hte left part and cost on the right).
Also in the end I want to add additional section that will compare our cost with AWS and Azure cost. I'll provide a cost computation formula for azure and aws later, you can use moked values for hte cusrrent moment
