/ AWS Cost Evaluation

Measure the cost ofmoving every byte

Run Expanso on connected nodes close to your data sources, then compare downstream volume and AWS spend against your existing baseline.

/ The problem

Where AWS data costs accumulate

Storage, transfer, and managed-service charges depend on each workload and AWS pricing configuration.

Data transfer

Measure Movement

Identify high-volume flows that cross regions, accounts, or network boundaries.

Storage growth

Measure Retention

Separate records that must be retained from duplicates, debug data, and other candidates for transformation.

Observability ingestion

Measure Signal

Review which logs and events support alerts, investigations, and operational requirements.

/ The Expanso difference

Evaluate processing close to the source

Define a representative workflow, target connected nodes with labels, and measure outputs before changing production routing.

/ How it works

What to test

Use customer-owned baselines and acceptance criteria.

Source-side filtering

Selected Records

Test customer-defined filters on a representative stream and inspect every retained and rejected class.

Transformation

Selected Formats

Evaluate aggregation or format changes against downstream consumers and retention requirements.

Routing

Selected Destinations

Verify destination behavior and failure handling before broader deployment.

/ Outcomes

Customer-specific evaluation

Expanso does not promise a universal reduction. Results depend on workload, policy, and destination pricing.

Input

Record source volume, current destinations, and current AWS cost.

Output

Measure retained volume and validate downstream behavior.

Decision

Use observed results to decide whether and where to expand.

/ Why Expanso

Why evaluate Expanso for AWS

Near-source execution

Run data-processing pipelines on connected nodes close to where data is generated.

Declarative jobs

Define jobs with YAML and target evaluation nodes with labels.

Measured rollout

Validate a representative flow before changing a wider production path.

/ FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How much will we save?

There is no universal savings percentage. Establish an AWS cost and volume baseline, run a representative evaluation, and calculate the observed effect using your own pricing.

What should we test first?

Choose one high-volume flow with clear downstream requirements and a reversible routing plan.

Does an evaluation prove production results?

No. Validate performance, failure handling, downstream compatibility, and cost again under the intended production load.
