Serverless Pricing & the Free Tier
Understand how AWS Lambda billing works, what counts toward cost, and how the generous free tier lets you build and experiment for almost nothing.
Pay Only for What You Use
With serverless you pay per request and per compute time, never for idle servers. When nobody calls your function, you pay nothing.
The Two Cost Components
Lambda cost has two parts: Requests (a flat price per million invocations) and Duration (billed per millisecond, scaled by memory).
