Learners will gain an understanding of the key AWS services that drive costs in Eclipse Dataspace Components (EDC) connector deployments, how to estimate monthly infrastructure costs for both business-critical and non-critical workloads, and how to apply optimization strategies that can reduce spending by up to 58%. The course also covers the cost drivers in data space architectures -- including performance requirements, reliability needs, and data volume -- and distinguishes between centralized governance infrastructure and participant-hosted connector costs within the AWS Well-Architected Framework.
