The cost of Amazon VPC depends on the components you put inside the VPC and the traffic volume. While the direct cost of the VPC is usually not problematic, the associated components and their traffic can influence the overall expense.
VPC is a free cost, and then subnet also is a free cost. So the only cost could be for the resources we implemented in that. That could be a cost for me.

We can use the tool for free. However, there is a cost associated with traffic outside the cloud. We do not have to pay for an extra license for the product.
Amazon is not very transparent with pricing. It's quite complicated to see where you're spending and how you can track it. I was spending $30,000 a year and $3600 monthly on top of that initial payment. However, I have been able to bring the cost down for this year.
Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) lets you provision a logically isolated section of the AWS Cloud where you can launch AWS resources in a virtual network that you define. You have complete control over your virtual networking environment, including selection of your own IP address range, creation of subnets, and configuration of route tables and network gateways. You can use both IPv4 and IPv6 in your VPC for secure and easy access to resources and applications.

The price is based on how long you want your VPCs to run. It also depends on the class and family of the VPCs and the resources running underneath.
This solution is quite expensive.
