What your estate costs on BKE.
Enter your clusters, your worker cores and what you pay for your current platform. The calculator shows the cost of BKE per year and over several years, the difference, and the effective rate per worker core. Everything is calculated in your browser; nothing you enter is stored or sent to us.
The comparison a bank should make
The rate entered is the worked example's assumption: a heavily discounted OpenShift figure, used because OpenShift is negotiated per customer and no list price applies to any particular one. It is not a quote. Replace it with the per-core rate from your own.
The file is made in your browser, and the link keeps the figures after the
#, which a browser does not send to a website. Neither
reaches us.
Arrangement C is the like-for-like comparison: it adds the platform services and a support contract with a four-hour response time, as the worked example explains. Hardware, data-centre space and the engineers who run the estate are left out of both sides. All figures exclude VAT.

The arithmetic
Three sums, and nothing counted twice.
| A · BKE | Clusters × US $12,000 a year. The number of cores does not change it. |
|---|---|
| B · BKE and Tersane | A, plus Bahriya Tersane at US $60,000 a year for the organisation, whatever the number of clusters. |
| C · with support | B, plus support with a four-hour response time and consulting, at US $5,000 a month (US $60,000 a year). |
| Per worker core | Each arrangement's annual cost divided by your worker cores, cut to the cent: the unit an OpenShift or Tanzu quote arrives in. |
