Cost estimator

Infrastructure cost estimator

Model your expected costs before onboarding. Platform costs cover shared infrastructure (SFTP, API, auth, CDN) used by all projects. Project costs scale with your data volume, transfers, and activity. Pick a data region (US Oregon or EU Frankfurt) to match where the project will store data. Estimates use documented AWS us-west-2 list prices; EU figures are approximate for the same service mix.

Note: This is just an estimate based on AWS costs. This doesn't include the discounts Syphera has with AWS.

Model assumptions
Includes interactive (browser/SFTP) and Instrument Data methods when enabled above.
  • Pricing region: us-west-2 (figures use us-west-2 list prices; EU eu-central-1 is approximate)
  • Platform baseline ~$361/mo shared across 5 project(s)
  • SFTP is regional — each data region runs Transfer Family; $219/mo per region split evenly
  • Downloads via CloudFront with ~44% egress reduction vs direct S3 (planning; live browser/CLI is mostly S3 pre-signed)
  • Avg download size: 5.00 GB; avg upload: 2.00 GB
  • 50% of interactive upload volume via SFTP, remainder via browser
  • GuardDuty malware scan charged on interactive uploaded GB only (browser/SFTP quarantine path — not DataSync/IBM/FSxN)
  • DataSync OFF: enable under Instrument Data ingestion to model NFS/SMB → main bucket transfer + task/credentials
  • IBM Aspera/Scale OFF: enable to model AWS-side shared credentials (S3 PUTs + landing storage + Secrets Manager)
  • FSxN OFF: enable to model provisioned ONTAP capacity/throughput for SnapMirror
  • Estimates are not invoices — exclude DX, enterprise support, and Reserved/Savings Plans discounts
