I want to find the cost estimate for MSK serverless for the current workload i have in my production environment. I cant find the MSK Serverless option in aws calculator, but in the aws msk pricing page Pricing Dimension Unit Price per unit Cluster-hours per hour $0.75 Partition-hours per hour $0.0015 Storage per GiB-month $0.10 Data In per GiB $0.10 Data Out per GiB $0.05
above data are there. How to calculate above five parameters for my current workload with the data available in CloudWatch metrices in the production account. Or is there a better way to calculate the cost

Hi Parthasaradi, In cost explorer i can get the data for my usage only for the previous months right. I want to get/calculate the cost if i switch to MSK serverless with my current workload.
Hello Vinusan,
you can use the CloudWatch metrics from your existing setup to simulate the cost based on the pricing dimensions of MSK Serverless.
To Estimate MSK Serverless Cost:
Gather Metrics from CloudWatch:
Cluster Uptime: Total hours your current cluster is running. Number of Partitions: Total partitions in your current setup. Storage Used: Total storage used in GiB. Data In: Total data ingested in GiB. Data Out: Total data egressed in GiB.
Is it possible to use a python script to get the above data to calculate the cost for one month
Yes, it's possible to use a Python script to gather the required metrics from AWS CloudWatch and calculate the cost for one month. you can use the boto3 library to interact with AWS CloudWatch and fetch the necessary metrics.
