Hi,
I have a really great idea for an app for the SAP Store, but even though there is a free instance of NetWeaver on HANA to try it out, the cost involved in running this instance (that are charged by AWS) are too great.
Does anybody know how those costs can be reduced to sane fees?
Regards,
Tom
Hi Tom,
The only thing that could help in this case is to keep your solution "suspended" while your are not using it. This could help you reduce your AWS costs to a large extent.
People often forget to implement this simple cost-saving measure and since their solutions are running all the time in AWS, their billing counter keeps ticking. You could either use scheduling options within CAL or do this yourself manually.
Lemme know if this helps.
Best Regards,
Adarsh

Hello Adarsh,
thanks a lot for your answer.
Actually, I DO use the "suspending" option and also have billing alerts. but this only amplifies my claiming - as even with these tools it seems to me that the costs involved in maintaining a working instance of SAP (for development) are very high.
Also. I've noticed that the AWS billing counter keeps ticking even in suspended state(!), although at much slower rate.
Regards,
Tom

Usually CAL instances come with EBS devices
