cost forecast and comparison
| current | proposed | |||
| vendor | cost | vendor | cost | vendor |
| njfcs.org domain registration | $12.95 | eapps | $6.99 | godaddy.com |
| www.njfcs.org hosting | $356.40 | eapps | $0 | dreamhost non-profit org discount |
| registration site | $200 | Gwo-Ming | $168 | amazon ec2 |
| mail service | $120 | 1&1 | $10 | amazon ses |
| phone number | $8.95 | $0 | google voice | |
- Separate domain name registration from hosting service give us the flexibility to move to another vendor at any time
- I’ve subscribed amazon ec2 with njfcs1944@gmail.com with my own contact and credit card info – will have to be updated with school’s info; I’ve kept setup and config notes at http://derekchang.me/ec2-for-fcs/
- Once you and staff confirm, I will go ahead to subscribe to justhost with a 2-year term ($2.48/month) so that we can proceed with implementing new services – will have to be updated with school’s info
- Once 3 is done, webmaster team can start building new site but first step is to secure mysql backup and the file sharing services
- eapps is dedicated host while justhost is shared virtual host and ec2 is virtual machine built upon xen framework – there are pros and cons for each them but new solutions will be more economic
