About AWS Cloud Map
- About AWS Cloud Map
-
AWS Cloud Map is a discovery service for cloud resources that allows custom naming of app resources. It tracks resource locations to ensure app availability, simplifying resource management to improve developer productivity. It also includes a health check system for app efficiency. Essential for handling microservices, continuous integration, delivery, and automated health monitoring, it maintains an updated registry of service names/locations.
- AWS Cloud Map pricing
-
AWS Cloud Map pricing is based on the enlisted resources and the API calls used. No upfront payments; it's a pay-per-use system. Extra charges may apply if you enable DNS discovery for IP resources and use Amazon Route 53 for health checks. Costs are calculated per resource (e.g. an EC2 instance/month) and per million DiscoverInstances API calls. Registering IP resources with Amazon Route 53 DNS and enabling optional health checks can incur more costs.
