If I try to match the actual machine. 16G ram. A rough estimate is that their Xeon E3-1240 would be ~2 AWS vCPU. So an r6g.large is the instance that would roughly match this one. Add 500G disk + 1 Gbps to/from the internet and ... monthly cost 3,700 USD.
Without any disk and without any data transfer (which would be unusable) it's still ~80USD. Maybe you could create a bootable image that calculates primes.
These are still not the same thing, I get it, but ... it's safe to say you cannot get anything remotely comparable on AWS. You can only get a different thing for way more money.
(made estimates on https://calculator.aws/ )
125 MB per second × 60 seconds per minute × 60 minutes per hour × 24 hours per day x 30 days = 324 TB?
If you want 1 Gbps unmetered colo pricing, AWS is not competitive. So set up your video streaming service elsewhere :-)
https://portal.colocrossing.com/register/order/service/480 offers unmetered for $2,500 additional per month, for the record.
If you have high bandwidth needs on AWS you can use AWS Lightsail, which has some discounted transfer rates.
That's not dedicated 48 cores, it's 48 "vCPUs". There are probably 1,000 other EC2 instances running on those cores stealing all the CPU cycles. You might get 4 cores of actual compute throughput. Which is what I was saying
