[AusNOG] AWS Direct Connect

[Bill Walker]

To answer your Direct Connect pricing question... we have a 1gb DC in 
Chicago and the monthly cost breakdown is:

$200USD Equinux Cross Connect
$220USD DC 1gb Port Charge (30c/hour)

Data in to AWS is free, Data out is 2c/MB. From what I can see in the 
AWS Console, I can create as many L3 interfaces (public or private) as I 
like. Although there may be associated VPC Charges if I did so though.

Cheers,

Bill
