# VPC costs

> Compare VPC backend choices using explicit service-adapter planning assumptions.

Tensor9 BYOC planning comparisons for `aws::1.0.0::vpc`, with backend choices shown together. Read [how Tensor9 estimates service-adapter costs](/byoc/costs/overview.md) for price scope and capacity qualification, or return to [additional services](/byoc/costs/additional-services.md).

## Virtual network and NAT allocation (VPC) → Scaleway VPC

Origin API: `aws::1.0.0::vpc`. Target backend: `scaleway::1.0.0::vpc`.

**Native or deployment mapping.** This mapping configures native networking. Application packets pass through the target network or load balancer, not the adapter fabric, and this directed mapping does not expose an origin-cloud network-management endpoint. The target provider's networking terms apply. Cost estimates describe the selected service resources; operation coverage remains separate.

* 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 → us-central1, 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.
* Resource-hours represent selected gateway allocation, not a claim that the network object has an hourly fee.
* Use matching source and target traffic scope: NAT processing, inter-zone transfer and internet egress are different meters.
* Resource-hours are the selected NAT/gateway allocation, not a fee for the network object; network GiB is the gateway's processed or transferred traffic. Free management API calls do not reveal network traffic. Cloud NAT bills USD 0.0014 per assigned VM-hour, capped at 0.044 from 32 VMs, plus 0.005/hour per NAT IP; the default gateway-hour is the 32-VM cap, so lower it for small node pools.

Cost scope: Modeled target native service and explicitly modeled state allocation; hosting and Tensor9 fees only when supplied.

Excluded costs and workload features:

* Public IPv4, VPN/interconnect, firewalls, private endpoints, DNS, peering and traffic outside the selected transfer scope.
* Taxes, discounts, credits and free-tier allowances unless explicitly reflected in edited rates.
* Unmodeled dependent services, task execution and operations outside the selected workload family.
