Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I don't believe there is a license cost for the solution."
  • "We've observed that AWS Secrets Manager pricing is based on a per-secret-per-month model. As a result, we prefer to divide our secrets into individual pieces to increase security and grant specific access permissions to certain secrets, systems, or individuals. However, this approach results in higher costs. Therefore, we have been exploring ways to combine our secrets into groups to reduce expenses and simplify management. Nonetheless, we acknowledge that this issue may not be related to the secret manager's functionality."
  • "The solution is expensive."
  • "We purchase a monthly license for the product."
  • "The cost is somewhat high."

  • "On a scale of one to five, with one being expensive and five being competitive, I would rate the pricing of this solution as a five."
