Question: How can issuers find more information on the costs associated with setting up and maintaining an Amazon EDGE server?
Answer: The Amazon Web Services (AWS) website contains information on the storage, processing, and support costs associated (http://aws.amazon.com). Issuers can also develop a cost estimate based on their specific processing needs by using the AWS Simple Monthly calculator tool (http://calculator.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html) Issuers may also email Amazon edge-aws@amazon.com for more information on Amazon pricing.
