The Infrastructure Iceberg
SAP/Cloud Migration·#ICEBERG
An interactive split-screen dashboard that visualizes why a minor traffic increase can double a cloud bill. Above the waterline is the compute 'sticker price' teams budget for; below it, the hidden mass of cross-zone egress, verbose logging, and idle storage swells as load rises. Toggling optimization (zone-aware routing, storage lifecycle rules, log sampling) shrinks the hidden mass and keeps cost flat as traffic scales.

SIMULATION SPEC
CONCEPTThe Server Sticker Price Fallacy — hidden non-compute cloud waste (egress, logging, idle storage) vs. optimization
CAPTURE SOURCEEmbedded (React + framer-motion)
SLIDER PARAMSUser Load / Data Egress / Storage sliders + Optimization toggle across 5 scenes: hook → problem → reveal → solution → CTA
OUTPUT METRICMonthly cost, compute %, non-compute waste % (29–35%), egress GB, log volume

HOW THIS RUNS
This is a live, interactive recreation embedded directly on the page — not a static diagram. Step through the scenes above to watch traffic reroute across the tiers in real time. The embedded simulation is recorded on screen, and that capture becomes the content.
