Aws s3 reduced redundancy costs the same as standard?

I typed in the same parameters on s3 calculator for rss and standard and the result seems the same. I put in 10M put requests and 10M get requests for both and they came out to $5.38 under us-east zone.

Am i missing something here? Thank you in advance.

The requests do cost the same for both types of storage it costs exactly the same.

The pricing differences come down to cost per GB. For example storing 100GB in standard S3 storage will cost you $3. Storing the same amount of data in reduced redundancy will cost you $2,4.

Pricing for standard can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/.

While pricing for Reduced can be found here: https://aws.amazon.com/s3/reduced-redundancy/.

Update: As the comment below points out, now the the price for Standard storage is $0,023 per GB, so 100GB would cost $2,4 while the Reduced stayed at the same cost.

Now there's another option called Standard - Infrequent Access Storage, which has the same benefits of S3 Standard and has a cost of 0.0125 per GB, so storing 100GB on tier would cost $1,25, but there are some caveats to watch for:

  • Minimum object size of 128KB.
  • Minimum storage duration of 30 days (if you delete the object before you'll be billed for 30 days).
  • A per GB retrieval fee ($0.01 per GB) similar to the one present in AWS Glacier.

Refer below document.

https://aws.amazon.com/s3/pricing/

Anyways, pricing differs from Region to Region, No. of put/get requests and on data transfer.
