Abstract

The number of Cloud Service Providers (CSPs) that provide their services differs from each other in terms of cost. This has made it difficult for companies and organizations to choose the best and least expensive cloud service providers. In light of the current crises that the world is going through and with the many financial problems faced by many companies, including Al-Madinah International University, it was necessary to take some measures that would mitigate the impact of financial problems, and therefore this study came to present a comparative study between each of cloud service providers Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) which provide Virtual Private Server (VPS) services in terms of cost to help Al-Madinah International University in making the appropriate decision in choosing the cloud service provider that suits its financial requirements.
