NAT Gateways also support bandwidth, availability, and performance properties that most customers just don't need. AWS networking services which charge by GB processed are always a cost disaster waiting to happen.
I built my own NAT AMI[1] that costs <$4/month and has zero bandwidth charges and is good enough for most people.

- aynsof 4y agoMy first question was answered in the readme: "But what about AWS' NAT Instance AMI?" The official AWS supported NAT Instance AMI hasn't been updates since 2018, is still running Amazon Linux 1 which is now EOL, and has no ARM support, meaning it can't be deployed on EC2's most cost effective instance types. fck-nat. I had no idea this was the case. Thank you for making this!
