complex but not to mention expensive. i wonder what the costs per month would be sending/receiving a relatively small workload per day (1000 messages) doing it with SES and S3 versus a cheap vps provider.
- social_quotient 7y agoThe SES and S3 side of things would be free? (62,000 free per month) https://aws.amazon.com/ses/pricing/ https://aws.amazon.com/ses/pricing/ Yes, complexity would be a factor for sure.
- why_only_15 7y agoFor receiving they only get 1,000 free, and for both after that it's $0.10/1,000 emails, which isn't very much at all.
- TheSpiciestDev 7y ago> SES charges $0.09 per 1000 mail “chunks”, where a chunk is 256 Kb of data. This is on top of the base SES fee and S3 operation and storage fees. > But it only charges for each complete chunk. So < 256KB is free, 256KB is $0.09/1000, etc. Others elsewhere here have stated otherwise - haven't looked for the small print on AWS' page myself yet, though.
- uchiga 7y agowhat if you get 10 billion unwanted messages? 900k bill?
- sathyabhat 7y agoIt's 62,000 free only if the emails are being sent from an EC2 instance, else it is $0.10 for every 1,000 emails you send.
