Before moving a new web system to AWS, estimate monthly costs for EC2, RDS, and S3.
The resources have not been created; estimate from the planned configuration and usage assumptions.
Which service is appropriate?
AWS Pricing Calculator estimates a planned AWS configuration from service, Region, quantity, and usage assumptions.
Detailed explanation
It monitors running cost or usage against a budget; it is not the planning estimate tool.

Foundation review
Estimate versus invoice
Calculator output supports planning and can differ from a final bill because assumptions and discounts change.
Input quality
Region, quantity, capacity, and running time should reflect the intended workload.
