pay-per-use
pricing model.
Let’s do a simple calculation. Say I have a 1GB Redis database and I receive 1
million requests per month. For ElastiCache (cache.t3.small, $0.034 hourly) this
costs at least $24 not including data transfer and storage cost. For RedisLabs,
the 1GB plan costs $22 per month. For Upstash the price is $0.2 per 100k
requests. For 1 million, it is $2 plus the storage cost that is $0.25. So for
1GB, 1M request per months, ElastiCache is $24, RedisLabs is $22, Upstash is
$2.25.
