How does Route 53 charge?
I bought a domain not from AWS and setted it up using route 53 with amazon. The ec2 instance is just running from 2 days without any server running on it (I'm still working on the coding part) but I setted up route 53. Today in my billing I saw this:
How does it work? I'm still in free tier so I'm not sure if it was covered or not. Even if it was, how did AWS charged 50 cents for 2 days routing when no one visited my site and nothing was running on the ec2 instance? Can somebody explain?
Most likely the minimum charge for DNS queries or/and for your hosed zones. If you go to billing dashboard, you will clearly see the itemized charges under Route53. I see the following itemized charges in my billing dashboard. Even if your dig your DNS, it is considered as a query.
