What are you using for compute EKS and Fargate? We just helped someone switch from Heroku to AWS and they dropped their cloud costs by 67%. This is using ECS + EC2. Fargate is typically 2x more expensive.
- nijave 4y agoIs that taking spot/reserved instances into account (for both). Afaik Fargate supports both of those
- safeerm 4y agoWithout Spot/Reserved incentives. Could get even more if that’s done.
- hpeinar 4y agoSpot/Reserved instances are used. I probably should have clarified that the extra cost was expected as we did a lot more in AWS than we could in Heroku, we used the switch to start using bunch of stuff AWS offers like Lambda functions, CloudFront, RDS etc. Stuff that we just didn't (and couldn't) use on Heroku, thus didn't pay for it. As the purpose of the switch was to get more control, features and out of the Herokus "black box", higher costs were expected and perfectly normal.
