ABSTRACT
"Cloud Computing" is one of the most significant advances in information technology since the rise of the global Internet network. The cost effectiveness of the cloud computing is one of the reason for its popularity. The cost can be further reduced by the customer by carefully selecting the cloud service provider, according to his/her requirement.
This work is an attempt to list the different pricing models and pricing schemes used by some of the popular IaaS providers and also to understand how the price varies for the same requirement in different IaaS providers. This survey helps the customers to understand the different pricing models and to choose the better IaaS provider depending on his/her requirement.
