Examples of Qualifying Cloud Expenses

What cloud expenses often qualify as R&D?

If applicable, we are looking for expenses related to Amazon Web Services (AWS), Google Cloud, Microsoft Azure, Heroku etc. Any cloud expenses related to research and development, specifically cloud computing expenses related to hosting pre-production software development, testing, staging, etc.


For breakout cloud costs involving R&D, all you need to do is give us the information for applicable years or time periods, no need to send us information for a full year if there aren't any R&D cloud costs for the entire year.
