Cost
You are responsible for the cost of the AWS services used while running this solution. As of this revision, the cost for running this solution with the default settings with no incoming bidding traffic to the solution in the US East (N. Virginia) Region is approximately $237.50 per month.
We recommend creating a budget through AWS Cost Explorer to help manage costs. Prices are subject to change. For full details, see the pricing webpage for each AWS service used in this solution.
Note
If you want to opt out of using CloudFront and AWS WAF and directly send requests to the ALB, see Opting out of using CloudFront and AWS WAF.
Cost tables
The total cost of this solution includes two parts:
-
Cost for deploying the solution without incoming bidding traffic
-
Cost incurred from the traffic flowing through the solution
The following assumptions apply for calculating the cost:
-
The cost breakdown per month includes deploying this solution with the default parameters in the US East (N. Virginia) Region.
-
The Fargate to Fargate Spot pricing ratio is 1:1. With Fargate Spot instances, customers can run interrupt-tolerant Amazon ECS tasks on spare capacity at up to a 70% discount off of the regular Fargate instance price. For more information, see AWS Fargate Pricing
. -
Each incoming HTTP request to the solution is of a fixed size (0.5 KB), and three bidders participate in a single auction request.
