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 using a small Amazon OpenSearch Service cluster size, and assuming an average record size of 5 KB at a rate of 1 records/second for Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose and 1 shard provisioned for Amazon Kinesis Data Streams, with default settings in the US East (N. Virginia) Region is approximately $832.08/month. A detailed breakdown of this cost estimate is provided in the following tables.
Cost estimate example
The cost to run OpenSearch Service with different cluster sizes is shown in the following table, which includes charges for OpenSearch Service instance hours.
OpenSearch Service cluster size | Total cost/month [USD] |
---|---|
Small | $806.40 |
Medium | $3,477.46 |
Large | $6,696.00 |
The following example cost estimate uses a small OpenSearch Service cluster size as the basis for calculation and assumes an average record size of 5 KB at a rate of 1 record/second. To determine the cost estimate using different OpenSearch Service cluster sizes, replace the Total Cost amount with the cost for the corresponding cluster size.
Note
The cost for running this solution is a formula based on the size of your log records and the rate at which this data is being sent to the Kinesis Data and Delivery Streams. Transfer costs between Regions using CloudWatch destinations are not accounted for in this cost estimate
