Why the totals differ
Google Cloud is significantly cheaper at $0.05/month, while AWS and Azure are 8,800x and 10,400x more expensive, respectively. This vast difference stems from Google Cloud's sustained use discounts, which are not explicitly modeled in the AWS or Azure on-demand pricing for this tier. If the workload requires high availability, the cost structure would change significantly as this tier is single-node.
