What this change measures
The headline is the geometric mean of end/start price ratios for configurations present at both endpoints. Matching requires the same provider, GPU variant, tier, minimum GPU count, and published instance and region. A provider entering or leaving the sample is not counted as a price change. No cause for a change is inferred from its price alone.
