OpenInfraQuote: Wrangling cloud costs with an open source, standalone, Terraform cost estimator

Cloud infrastructure has fueled innovation for nearly two decades—yet cost control remains a challenge. Unforeseen expenses and complicated billing can hamper agility, forcing teams to overspend just to stay competitive.What if you could evaluate costs in real-time, identify inefficiencies, and optimize deployments—without slowing development? Imagine adjusting parameters based on on-the-fly estimates and usage.In this presentation, Malcolm Matalka, Co-founder and CTO of Terrateam, explores how OpenInfraQuote, a new open-source command-line tool, transforms Terraform and OpenTofu code into actionable cost insights. Learn how to automate price checks, compare scenarios, and avoid financial surprises—alongside how it differs from other solutions and how to integrate it into your workflow.Resources- GitHub: https://github.com/terrateamio/openinfraquote- Documentation: https://openinfraquote.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
