SNS Standard · SNS publish billing units

Feature: SNS Standard. Estimated monthly service charges by SNS publish billing units. Adapter hosting and Tensor9 fees are excluded. Source: us-east-1; target: us-central1; currency: USD. Comparison pills describe all sampled scale points; amounts beside each service are for the named workload. Costs The Same means within 20% at every point. Costs Depend includes mixed results and unpriced samples. Sampled monthly charges in USD, rounded to cents. Difference means target minus origin; a positive difference means the target costs more. Estimated allocation, not benchmark calibrated: sized from 2 vCPU, 8 GiB memory and 100 GiB SSD at 0 per second to 32 vCPU, 128 GiB memory and 100 GiB SSD at 1,000 per second. From 10,000 per second the workload exceeds the planning range and the target is unpriced. Curve assumptions

• Fan-out and retry assumptions remain explicit; this is not destination delivery TPS. Other native meters and workload assumptions retain their explicitly displayed default quantities. Workload translation and capacity assumptions are not benchmark measurements.
• Native monthly usage priced at the cited provider list prices; listed target allowances apply where present, excluding invoice credits, taxes and negotiated discounts. Rates as of 2026-10-22: 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.
• Samples of explicit prices 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.
• Authored planning assumptions, not measured adapter capacity. Origin rates are cited first-tier list prices, before free allowances and discounts.
• A cost scenario does not establish backend availability, protocol fidelity or production readiness. Registry serving status remains independent.
• Native Pub/Sub and Service Bus backends also retain durable SNS staging. Price that allocation once; database targets already host the translated writes.
• Native broker subscriptions and SNS delivery claims are distinct surfaces. Supported delivery protocols and delivery consent remain backend-specific.
• Google Pub/Sub bills published and delivered bytes at the Message Delivery Basic rate and retained messages per GiB-month. Each request is billed at no less than 1,000 bytes; the family’s batching and delivery assumptions must represent that. The first 10 GiB of combined throughput a month is free per billing account and is not applied. BigQuery and Cloud Storage subscriptions bill USD 50 per TiB instead. Unacknowledged messages younger than one day bill no storage.
• Row-store throughput (capacityOpsPerVcpuSecond, default 1500) is measured-by-tensor9 as a lower bound: the DynamoDB adapter on Cloud SQL db-custom-2-7680 (2 vCPU, PostgreSQL 16, us-west1) served 2,974 ops/s of YCSB-A at 16 threads without recorded saturation (src/main/kotlin/t9/prime/equiv/generated/eval/CloudsqlPostgresqlYcsbAT16GoYcsbV1_0_0.kt). Published CPU-bound pgbench reaches 3,101 read-write transactions and 20,289 point reads per vCPU-second (AWS z1d.2xlarge, PostgreSQL 14.5), so actual capacity is likely higher. Reads and writes share one coefficient: at the same adapter version, read-only YCSB-C was not faster than 50%-update YCSB-A.
• Log-broker throughput (capacityStreamMiBPerVcpuSecond 20 at 0.5 utilization, 4 GiB RAM per vCPU) is provider-documented by Google Managed Service for Apache Kafka sizing (https://docs.cloud.google.com/managed-service-for-apache-kafka/docs/plan-cluster-size): write-equivalent bytes are replicated writes plus a quarter of reads. Producer batches below 10 KB lower per-CPU throughput; that penalty is not modeled.
• Disk utilization 0.8 is provider-documented headroom below Cloud SQL automatic storage increase, which triggers near 91-95% full (https://docs.cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/instance-settings). The 20 GiB reserve exceeds PostgreSQL’s 1 GB default max_wal_size; the remainder of that reserve is unmeasured.
• CPU tiers double from 2 vCPUs to the target’s largest node at 4 GiB per vCPU; each target’s documented largest node bounds CPU, RAM, RAM per vCPU and disk, and the durable staging database uses Cloud SQL Enterprise (96 vCPU, 6.5 GiB per vCPU, 624 GiB, 64 TiB). Targets billed per capacity unit or throughput unit are sized by their backend instead.
• No public evidence: peak/mean work (2) and the RAM working-set fraction (0.1). Proposed measurements: the p99 one-minute rate over the monthly mean from customer CloudWatch metrics; the buffer hit ratio while stepping RAM under a fixed YCSB-B load.
• Node bounds: Cloud SQL Enterprise allows 1-96 vCPUs at 0.9-6.5 GB per vCPU and up to 64 TB with a dedicated vCPU (https://docs.cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/instance-settings).
• Stored GiB already includes the origin family’s physical footprint assumptions; no second storage amplification is applied.
• The operations/vCPU coefficient supplies the compute requirement alongside explicit resource-hour minima.
• Copies and allocation fractions change cost only; they do not increase modeled primary capacity.
• AWS Price List API, AmazonSNS offer: https://pricing.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/offers/v1.0/aws/AmazonSNS/current/us-east-1/index.json
• Pub/Sub pricing: https://cloud.google.com/pubsub/pricing

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

• Additional network transfer, backups, KMS, one-time migration and operational labor unless an explicit meter includes them.
• Destination application execution and separately billed downstream services; supply those allocations separately.
• HTTP/email/SMS/mobile delivery prices and destination-service charges; relay submission does not establish managed delivery reputation.
• Taxes, discounts, credits and free-tier allowances not explicitly listed by this model.
• Unmodeled dependent services, task execution and operations outside the selected workload family.

The cost-optimized E2 series lists 0.02181159/vCPU-hour and 0.00292353/GiB-hour; AWS m6i/r6i and Azure D2s v5/E2s v5 both decompose to 0.033/vCPU-hour and 0.00375/GiB-hour.
