Why the totals differ
Google Cloud is significantly cheaper for this Extra Small Sonatype Nexus Repository configuration, costing effectively nothing compared to AWS at $172 and Azure at $188. This dramatic difference stems from Google Cloud's sustained use discounts, which are not applicable to the on-demand pricing modeled for AWS and Azure. While on-demand pricing is used across all clouds, the specific machine family and region chosen on Google Cloud for this tier likely qualifies for a substantial sustained use discount, making it the primary cost driver.
