I’ve been using AWS to host my Vapor Swift server, but currently, there’s no traffic as I am just running the server 24/7.

Monthly Costs:

The total cost is approximately $65 per month, with the most expensive service being RDB (using PostgreSQL). Here’s a list of the AWS services I’m using:

• EC2 T2.nano Instance for AWS Cloud9

• RDB (PostgreSQL)

• Elastic Load Balancer

• ECS Fargate, CPU: .25 vCPU, Memory: .5GB (500MB)

Breakdown of Service Costs:

Conclusion

I’m sharing the expenses with two friends, so it’s not too burdensome for me at the moment. However, I’m considering turning off the EC2-Other (Cloud 9 Service) as I only use it to access the terminal for checking database tables.

Despite this, I plan to continue using AWS as switching to another service would be time-consuming. This year, my focus is on monetizing my app through in-app purchases or Adsense. Hopefully, this will cover my server hosting costs.
