AWS DMS's pricing tiers
Instance-hour pricing model per aws.amazon.com/dms/pricing — exact current $/hr figures should be checked against the AWS Pricing Calculator before quoting a number, since the rate table changes and wasn't independently re-verified line-by-line here.
What actually drives the bill up
▲You pay for the replication instance by the hour regardless of whether data is actively moving — the wrong instance size means paying for idle compute.
▲Storage (a base allotment per instance class, more billed at standard EBS rates) is a second line item beyond compute.
▲Data transfer is free within the same AWS AZ/region but follows standard AWS egress pricing across AZs, regions, or outside AWS.
▲Multi-AZ deployments roughly double both compute and storage cost for redundancy.
How NoSQLSync compares
✓NoSQLSync has one flat monthly price per tier; AWS DMS requires picking and sizing a specific replication instance class plus separately accounting for storage and egress.
✓NoSQLSync supports DynamoDB as a source; AWS DMS does not support DynamoDB as a migration source at all — a functional gap as much as a pricing one for teams on DynamoDB.
✓NoSQLSync works with any cloud or self-hosted database; AWS DMS's pricing and mechanics are AWS-native only.

Frequently asked questions
How much does a small AWS DMS migration cost?
It depends heavily on instance size, Multi-AZ choice, and how long the replication instance stays provisioned — model it in the AWS Pricing Calculator for your exact instance class rather than relying on a rule of thumb.
Does AWS DMS charge for the data itself?
Not directly for in-AWS, same-region transfer, but standard AWS data-transfer rates apply once data crosses AZs, regions, or leaves AWS.
