Introduction

You have learned different recipes related to different AWS networking components and infrastructure. Let's understand how pricing is done by AWS for these services.

We shall use the AWS cost calculator, which is a simple user interface that lists most of the AWS services, and we can calculate the cost of all of the services that we are going to use in our AWS infrastructure for one or multiple regions. You need to remember that the cost of the networking components is calculated on their actual usage. AWS's pricing of services changes from time to time, so you should get the latest cost from the pricing page of each service. You can see the details of AWS free...
