(short-term vs. long-term)How much will the project scale/grow, up or down? How frequently will it change? How complex is your project/application? How many components are involved? Are these centralized, shared resources or will they be used on a per-project basis?How do you currently account for costs? What’s included? What’s not (typically) accounted for? (e.g. centralized services)Do you have the ability to do various types of accounting for costs? (time, capacity, longer contracts, all-you-can-eat, etc.)?How is networking accounted for? (traffic, traffic flows, speed, ports, volume, etc.)How is the data center accounted for? Is a free-tier part of the expectation? Is a POC or Trial part of the expectation?Can your project be connected to the public internet? Can you provide usage metrics to external groups?  FEEDBACK?Email: show at thecloudcast dot netTwitter: @thecloudcastnet
