Kubernetes Cluster Cost Calculator

A cluster bill is worker nodes plus the control plane fee plus persistent volumes. The defaults price six nodes at $140 each, an EKS control plane at $73 and 500 GB of storage at $0.10 per GB, which lands at $963.00 a month. Switch the presets to compare managed platforms.

Every result is pre-rendered with the default inputs, so the numbers are readable with JavaScript off. Results update as you type and nothing leaves your browser. Part of the Buildopsy engineering calculators.
