Hello AWS Community,
I'm currently developing a small application to enhance my skills and aiming to keep my AWS usage within the free tier limits. However, I've noticed daily charges of approximately $0.3 related to VPC usage, which was unexpected. My setup involves deploying an app through an ECS task running on an EC2 instance eligible for the free tier, without manual configuration of the VPC settings.
Could anyone clarify which aspects of VPC usage might incur charges outside of the free tier? Additionally, I'm seeking advice on adjustments or configurations I can implement to avoid these charges while maintaining necessary functionalities.
Thank you for your insights!

Thanks, that was very useful and informative.
Now I see that the cost is from:
USE1-PublicIPv4:InUseAddress, but what does it mean? Can I get rid of that to reduce my cost? Is it because I defined an elastic IP, or is it something else?AWS has started charging for public IPv4 addresses since February. It is thought that this is having an influence. I recommend that you try the following document, which describes how to search for public IPv4 in your AWS account. https://aws.amazon.com/jp/blogs/aws/new-aws-public-ipv4-address-charge-public-ip-insights/
That's correct. You have public IPv4 address in use in us-east-1 region. Please follow the document Riku_Kobayashi has provided .
