Authoritative DNS zones and queries (Route 53) · Authoritative DNS queries per second

Estimated monthly service charges by Authoritative DNS queries per second. Adapter hosting and Tensor9 fees are excluded. Source: us-east-1; target: eastus; currency: USD. Comparison pills describe all sampled scale points; card amounts show the named workload. Costs The Same means within 20% at every point. Costs Depend includes mixed results and unpriced samples. Exact sampled model outputs in USD/month. Difference means target minus origin; a positive difference means the target costs more. Curve assumptions

• Only this native meter varies; all other source usage and translation assumptions retain the displayed defaults. Editable authored planning guesses, not verified provider tariffs, benchmark measurements or a commercial quote. Other native meters retain their explicitly displayed default quantities.
• Planning estimate · editable authored rates and sizing assumptions dated 2026-10-22; not verified provider prices. us-east-1 → eastus, USD/month.
• Source prices are reference charges, not an invoice. Target lines cover selected service usage/configuration only; adapter hosting and Tensor9 fees are excluded.
• Explicit tariff samples are not performance measurements or capacity qualification. No interpolation or break-even guarantee is implied.
• Variant assumptions show the first axis sample; any axis-dependent configuration is described by this curve’s workload note.
• Rates are cited provider list prices, editable for discounts, commitments or another region. Workload translation and capacity coefficients remain editable planning assumptions, not benchmark measurements or a commercial quote.
• Default-zero rates are explicit assumptions, not evidence that the deployed service or resource is free.
• Provisioned-unit minimums use an editable approximate allocation floor. Modeled target service cost is max(usage/allocation, minimum), with billable network, durable staging and dependent sinks added separately; actual RU/TU sizing, scaling increments and throughput remain unqualified.
• Durable staging is priced once: provisioned targets include adapter state in their selected allocation; native targets add a separate staging allocation when required. Adapter hosting is a separate allocation and must exclude resources already priced as staging, workers or target capacity.
• A declared adapter mapping and cost model do not establish implementation availability or service equivalence.
• This is a declared directed mapping; a planning estimate does not establish deployment or request-serving support.
• Origin unit prices are cited provider list prices; capacity coefficients and translation assumptions are editable authored planning guesses, not measured capacity or a provider quote.
• Management requests do not reveal resource allocation or workload traffic. Provisioned resources and traffic are independent inputs.
• This compares authoritative zones and query meters; resolver forwarding has a different allocation and tariff.
• A cost scenario does not establish live-qualified runtime DNS propagation or public authority.
• Zone-months and authoritative queries are billed independently; management calls are free. Azure DNS public zones and queries; zone and query prices step down after 25 zones and one billion queries.
