I also recommend Digital Ocean for quick/cheap personal toy services, but for projects of enduring duration and reliability pricing calculators are totally public for AWS[1] and GCP[2]. I haven't seen any direct comparison calculators as everyone's particular mileage/needs may vary.

The good news is that at scale, the days of compute, storage, and data management becoming easy to use utilities to plug into are here, or near. The bad news is it still feels a bit too 'big' to plug small lamps into the main AWS or Cloud Platform grids, but I suspect those days are numbered as well.
