"There is an annual licensing cost to use Amazon API Gateway."
"AWS charges for data ingress and egress, which could be further reduced. This would be helpful for customers dealing with large amounts of data coming in or going out from their systems."
"It's cost-effective, even as our workload and the number of APIs we manage have increased."
"It is somewhat costly, particularly when it introduces server-related features, which are often scheduled on our end."
"My understanding is that it easily goes to $14,000 or $15,000 USD each month for each account, and we have several such accounts."
"I rate the platform's pricing a five out of ten."
