Cost - Network Orchestration for AWS Transit Gateway

Cost

You are responsible for the cost of the AWS services used while running this solution. As of January 2023, the cost for running this solution with the default settings in the US East (N. Virginia) Region with two VPCs attached to AWS Transit Gateway, with each VPC containing two subnets and using Amazon DynamoDB to store network data is approximately $80.60 per month. Note that AWS Transit Gateway charges for the amount of data transferred through it.

This cost estimate assumes the following:

  • The solution manages two VPCs attached to AWS Transit Gateway, each VPC containing two subnets in different Availability Zones.

  • Automated queries are made to Amazon DynamoDB from an actively running Transit Network Management web interface every five minutes. This estimate does not include manual queries.

  • A total of 1 GB of data is sent between all VPCs via the transit gateway.

  • The number of requests to the GraphQL API is 10,000 a month.
