Most all of those services are pay for use. Which means listing out the services you use means nothing. The price would be based on your level of usage. I have a bunch of lambdas setup in AWS and it's basically free because at the moment, I'm not running them.

Our ECS containers all run continuously processing Kafka messages. Dev has variable throughput, but it's hundreds of messages per second at least. The containers all use between 256MB and 2048MB commits (they're stream processors, so they don't hammer the memory like a stateful monolithic service would).
My point was just that it doesn't have to cost over $1k on Amazon to run a combination of services which apparently CAN run in a private lab for $5/mo, however that is calculated. I can't run my full stack even without load (due to memory commit) on my 32GB, 3 year old Xeon workstation, and that would cost a lot more than $5/mo at any provider I am aware of.
