In this paper, we discuss the nature of variability in compute performance in Infrastructure Clouds and how this presents opportunities for Cloud Service Brokers (CSB) in relation to pricing. Performance variation in virtual machines of the same type and price raises specific issues for end users: (i) the time taken to complete a task varies with performance, and therefore costs also vary (ii) the number of instances required to meet a certain problem scale within a given time being variable, so costs depend on variations in scale needed to meet the requirement; (iii) different computational requirements are better satisfied by different hardware, and understanding the relationship between instance types and available resources implies furt...
