This is cheaper than AWS EIP for instances that are using an EIP. It is free for GCP VMs to have a resevered IP and use it vs $3.60/mo for AWS EIP whether its used or not. With GCP, unused reserved IP is $7.20/mo. I can't think of a lot of scenarios where you need to hold on to an IP you're not using for an extended period of time, but I could be wrong.
- openstep 7y agohuh? aws eip is free if you're using it on an ec2 instance
- mitchs 7y agoAmazon EIPs are free when attached to a running VM. (Unless you have more than one attached to the same VM.)
- vasco 7y agoEIPs are free when attached. And public addressable instances in AWS do not need an attached EIP, that's only if you want the public IP to be static and to be able to replace the instance without updating DNS records. So both are free compared to GCP's paid.
