The biggest “hidden” cost for me was Elastic Blockstore IO charges! It started adding up quite quickly and I realized I had to think twice about doing IO intensive calculations on EC2! I switched over to lightsail (obviously these are for personal projects).
- mkesper 4y agoJust use gp3, shouldn't be needed to request higher IO with it (except for DBs, probably cheaper to use DynamoDB etc then).
- Bedon292 4y agoYeah, provisioned IOPS can add up quick. Never had justification to spend on them myself. If I need IO I use instances with attached storage, otherwise I purely use the GP SSDs.
