Why the totals differ

Google Cloud is significantly cheaper for this Extra Small Neo4j deployment, costing less than a dollar per month compared to AWS at $540 and Azure at $600. This dramatic difference is driven by Google Cloud's sustained use discounts, which are not explicitly modeled in the AWS or Azure on-demand pricing for this tier. A commitment to reserved instances on AWS or Azure would likely reduce their costs, potentially altering this comparison. The primary cost driver at this tier is the underlying virtual machine instance pricing.
