EKS pricing is $0.20/hour, or ~ $144/month. Not free, but also not $300.
I will agree that EKS startup is slow, but given the way it needs to run, I don’t think many customers will want to run more than a few clusters per VPC.
- jeremyjh 8y ago$144 a month gets you one master. As I said, an HA master is twice that. If you want to compare to GKE, you are starting at $288 a month.
- bbgm 8y agoThe only master for EKS is an HA master (to be precise a 3 AZ master).
- cddotdotslash 8y agoNot sure where these numbers are coming from but EKS has 3 masters by default. You don't get HA by running 2 clusters (I assume that's where you got $288). $144 gets you 3 masters in 3 AZs.
