Another AWS EC2 instance comparison tool that's always up to date

What it does

Pricing is refreshed daily from AWS docs, using the same JSON endpoint their pricing page pulls it from. The latest successful snapshot is stored with this site. On-demand pricing comes straight from the feed; the "reserved 1yr convertible (no-upfront)" column is estimated from the on-demand price using a per-family discount, since AWS does not expose a compact reserved-pricing feed. The reason I built this is because my favorite "goto" tool - https://ec2instances.info/ - has been acquired, lacks updates, has some unfixed bugs and misses some pricing. So I put together this little app to pull the data from AWS docs directly and display it in a sortablefrom ec2instances.github.io

  Hey HN, 10 years after the project began we have updated the UI for the cloud server comparison site known as EC2Instances.info.

I've also fixed numerous long standing UI bugs including: comparisons now load correctly on RDS and ElastiCache, sort by max ENI works, sort by RDS instance storage works, and all dropdowns have consistent behavior. For maintainers and contributors, all the frontend libraries are upgraded to their latest…

  PostgreSQL performance and cost across 23 EC2 instance typesJul 2026 · postgres.saneengineer.com · ▲97

  Hey! I'm Andrei. I got frustrated by how people tend to build overcomplicated backend systems, being "motivated" by big tech case studies and popular books. So, I started exploring lean architecture, and building my digital garden of ideas, approaches and data that align with this direction. Here I want to present one of the tools – Sizing tool for PostgreSQL. I've benchmarked PostgreSQL on different EC2 instances and disks, with different initial data sets to see performance that these instances can give you. And I've built a tool to visualize this data, which I welcome you to explore. So,…
