Origin API: azure::1.0.0::aks. Target backend: aws::1.0.0::eks::cluster.

Managed Kubernetes and discovery (AKS) · Worker CPU-hours per month

Estimated monthly service charges by Worker CPU-hours per month. Adapter hosting and Tensor9 fees are excluded. Source: eastus; target: us-east-1; currency: USD.
Managed Kubernetes and discovery (AKS) · Worker CPU-hours per month: monthly service charges by Worker CPU-hours per month. Exact values are in the following table.Managed Kubernetes and discovery (AKS) · Worker CPU-hours per month: monthly service charges by Worker CPU-hours per month. Exact values are in the following table.
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. eastus → us-east-1, 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.
  • The discovery adapter does not itself own or provision the cluster. Allocate existing cluster capacity once across adapters.
  • Cluster control-plane hours bill at the listed management fee and worker CPU/RAM at the provider’s VM decomposition; allocate a shared cluster once across adapters. Extended-support Kubernetes versions bill more. AWS: m6i general purpose decomposed against r6i (m7i.large lists 0.1008/hour, 5% higher); gp3 disk; internet egress.
