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.
