API Management Cost for Availability Zones

How high are the costs per availability Zone in Azure API Management (Premium Tier)?

I cant find information about this.

 

Is each scale unit and each availability zone one separate hosted API Management and so doubles the cost?

 

E.g. 

1 APIM = 1x Cost

1 APIM with 3 Units = 3x Cost

1 APIM with 3 Units and 2 Zone = 6x Cost

 

?

 

Thanks for your response. 

  • Found the solution in Pricing Calculator for APIM: All additional units are priced with 50% of the costs.

    "All additional units are charged at 50% of the base unit (regional variations may apply). Use boxes below to calculate cost associated with deploying additional units to support Multi-region deployments, Availability Zones, or other desired configurations."

    The Azure Pricing calculator will get you the cost based on the parameters that you select including the region where it will be hosted and the usage aspects.
