AWS Glue pricing against AWS EMR

Question

I am doing some pricing comparison between AWS Glue against AWS EMR so as to chose between EMR & Glue.

I have considered 6 DPUs (4 vCPUs + 16 GB Memory) with E

Answer 1

@user2889316 - Did you check my question wherein I had provided a comparison numbers?

Also please note Glue is roughly about 0.44 per hour / DPU for a job. I don't think you will have any AWS Glue JOB that is expected to running throughout the day? Are you talking about the Glue Dev end point or the Job?

A AWS Glue job requires a minimum of 2 DPUs to run, which means 0.88 per hour, which I think roughly about $21 per day? This is only for the GLUE job and there are additional charges such as S3, and any database / connection charges / crawler charges, etc.

Corresponding instance for EMR is m3.xlarge & its charges are (pricing at $0.266 & $0.070 respectively). This would be approximately less than $16 for 2 instance per day? plus other S3, database charges, etc. Am considering 2 EMR instances against the default DPUs for AWS Glue job.

Hope this would give you an idea.

Thanks
