hi @Rio !!
For 1 I believe it is correct. I am not sure if in legal terms it is a license after all, Weaviate is open source, so no license fees. But it would indeed be Weaviate’s share of your deal with AWS.
2A) There is no initial cost in serverless. There is a minimum you will pay monthly: $25 for a single node cluster and 75$ for Highly available cluster.
2B) So for example, considering you are using a 1536 dimensions, that $25 dollars will give you around 170k objects:
(170k * 1536) * 0.0095 = 24,80640
For serverless, you only pay for the stored dimensions. If you choose a HA cluster (multi node) that cost will be 3x.
2C When creating your cluster, you can select different GCP/AWS regions
For 3, Enterprise, it will fall into the same costs as Enterprise pricing as per our page: Enterprise Pricing | Weaviate
Let me know if you want me to connect you to our sales team as they have on this better!
Thanks!
