To optimize the cost of storing backups, configure the scheduling settings to run the backup policy less frequently, or specify an archive repository for long-term retention of restore points.įor more information on cost estimation, see this Veeam KB article.To reduce high snapshot charges, adjust the snapshot retention settings to keep less restore points in the snapshot chain.
To avoid additional costs related to cross-region data transfer, select a backup repository that resides in the same region as instances that you plan to back up. To reduce the cost, you can try the following workarounds: The estimated cost may occur to be significantly higher due to the backup frequency, cross-region data transfer and snapshot charges. To calculate the estimated cost, Veeam Backup for AWS uses capabilities of the Amazon Web Services Simple Monthly Calculator. The cost of sending API requests to Veeam Backup for AWS during data protection operations. If you get a warning message regarding additional costs associated with cross-region data transfer, you can click View details to see available cost-effective options. The cost of transferring the instance data between AWS Regions during data protection operations (for example, if a protected instance and the target backup repository reside in different regions). The cost of creating and storing in archive repositories archived backups of the instances. The cost of creating and storing in backup repositories image-level backups of the instances.įor each instance included in the backup policy, Veeam Backup for AWS takes into account the machine type, the number of EBS volumes attached, the number of restore points to be kept in the backup chain, and the configured scheduling settings. The cost of creating snapshot replicas and maintaining them in the target AWS Region.
The cost of creating and maintaining cloud-native snapshots of the instances.įor each instance included in the backup policy, Veeam Backup for AWS takes into account the instance type, the number of EBS volumes attached, the number of restore points to be kept in the snapshot chain, and the configured scheduling settings. The total estimated cost includes the following: At the Cost Estimation step of the wizard, review the estimated monthly cost of AWS services and resources that will be consumed to protect the instances added to the backup policy.
