Works with ARM Templates, Bicep and Terraform. ACE + Topaz ACE's estimation engine is becoming a core part of Topaz — a single-binary Azure emulator. When used through Topaz, you can estimate the cost of resources already deployed to your local environment without leaving your machine. ACE remains a fully standalone CLI tool and NuGet library ( TheCloudTheory.AzureCostEstimator.Core ) for teams that want to integrate cost estimation directly into their own pipelines or applications, independent of Topaz. What is ACE? ACE (Azure Cost Estimator) lets you estimate the cost of an Azure deployment before it happens. It reads your IaC template — ARM, Bicep, or Terraform — runs a What-If analysis, calls the Azure Retail Prices API, and gives you a cost breakdown down to the individual resource. ACE follows the concept of running cost as an architecture fitness function : make it a gate in your CI/CD pipeline and get immediate feedback on cost impact before any change reaches the cloud. Why ACE? Works before deployment — estimate cost from a template, not a running environment Covers 49 Azure services ( 92 resource types) — ARM, Bicep, and Terraform all supported Always fresh data — live calls to the Azure Retail Prices API, no stale pricing databases Delta reporting — shows the cost difference between current and proposed infrastructure CI/CD gate — optionally fail the pipeline when estimates exceed ","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/TheCloudTheory","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/TheCloudTheory/arm-estimator/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
