Hi Folcon,

Glad that the talk helped. The [pricing page](https://www.datomic.com/pricing.html) page has some information and links out to the AWS calculators, and [this forum thread](https://forum.datomic.com/t/datomic-cloud-pricing-fully-loaded-cost/306) has more information about production. Note that with ions you should also model the AWS Lambda and API Gateway costs (if you are using these _optional_ features).

That said, it is easy and inexpensive to start a system (e.g. just for a few hours) and try a representative load for your actual domain. I strongly recommend that anyone building _any_ cloud app do this. We would love to hear about your experience doing this.
