Overview
Extended Support cost now and next 12 months
RDS, Aurora and EKS resources paying Extended Support, what starts next and when, with the monthly cost. Example data.
Find out what old versions will cost before AWS bills you
When an RDS, Aurora or EKS version reaches the end of standard support, AWS keeps it running and starts charging for Extended Support. The charge is per vCPU-hour for databases and per cluster-hour for Kubernetes, and it often shows up on the bill before anyone notices.
Extended Support Cost Forecaster for AWS lists every resource that is paying now, what starts paying in the next 12 months, the date and the monthly amount.
What it checks
- RDS and Aurora (MySQL and PostgreSQL): end of standard support, Extended Support cost per instance, year-three price step, Multi-AZ
- EKS: clusters on Kubernetes versions in extended support, and those that will be upgraded automatically
- Lambda: functions on deprecated or soon-deprecated runtimes
- ElastiCache: Redis OSS 4 and 5 clusters in extended support
- ECR: images not pulled in 90 days and not referenced by ECS or Lambda, with their storage cost
Why you can trust the dates
End-of-support dates come from AWS's own lifecycle APIs for RDS and EKS, not from a table we maintain. Prices are AWS list prices for US East (N. Virginia); other Regions differ slightly, so treat amounts as estimates.
What you get
- Cost now, cost coming in the next 12 months and the next date a charge starts
- Slack and email alerts when a resource starts costing money and when it is upgraded
- CSV export for your FinOps or platform team
Security and access
The CloudFormation stack creates one role with a short custom policy of describe and list actions for RDS, EKS, Lambda, ElastiCache, ECR and ECS, with an External ID so only your workspace can use it. One of them, lambda:GetFunction, returns a link to your function code; we never fetch it. Nothing in your account is changed. You can review the template before you deploy it, and deleting the stack removes our access.
Typical uses
- Finding out why the RDS or EKS bill went up after a version reached end of support
- Planning database and Kubernetes upgrades before Extended Support starts charging
- Giving FinOps a monthly figure and a date for each old version
- Cleaning up ECR images and Lambda runtimes nobody uses any more
Who it is for
Platform, DevOps and FinOps teams that run databases or Kubernetes on AWS and want to plan upgrades before Extended Support charges begin.

Highlights
- Know the cost before it reaches your bill. AWS charges extra for databases and Kubernetes clusters left on versions past end of standard support: per vCPU-hour on RDS and Aurora (doubling in year three, and twice for Multi-AZ) and per cluster-hour on EKS. Every affected instance and cluster is listed with its monthly cost now and from the date the charge starts.
- Dates come from AWS, not from a spreadsheet. End-of-support dates are read from AWS's own lifecycle APIs for RDS and EKS, so new versions and changed dates appear without anyone updating a table. Lambda functions on deprecated runtimes and ElastiCache Redis OSS 4 and 5 clusters are flagged too, and Slack or email alerts arrive when something new starts costing money.
- Read-only, with a narrow policy you can review. One CloudFormation stack creates a role with a short list of describe and list permissions; nothing in your account is changed. It also lists ECR images not pulled in 90 days and not used by ECS or Lambda, so you can archive them. Priced per AWS account: 1, 5 or 25, with unlimited users.
