title: Amazon Web Services Price History?
body: <p>Is there a site that offers price history for various Amazon Web Services such as EC2, Cloudfront, etc?  Something like on 1/1/2009 a small on demand ec2 instance in the US East region cost $x.xxxx, on 1/1/2010 it cost $x.xxxx.</p>
  
  <p>I would like to be able to forecast that if something like a small on demand EC2 instance costs $0.085 per hour today that it will likely half in cost to $0.043 per hour a year from now.  Similarly if I have 10GB of files in S3 storage how will the cost be affected over a similar span of time?  I can only imagine, that like all technology, the cost will go down.</p>
  
  <p>I cannot seem to find any pricing information aside from this site which lists only the fluctuating cost of spot instances.</p>

  <p>And this statement made by Amazon on 8/20/2009 claiming that reserved instance pricing had been reduced by 30%.</p>

  <p>Any suggestions?</p>
