Methodology and assumptions
Control-plane management only. The optional GKE free tier credit is $74.40 per billing account per month for zonal and Autopilot clusters. Nodes, networking, storage, support, and operations are excluded. This is a unit-rate scenario, not a claim of feature equivalence. Architecture, availability, performance, discounts, ancillary services, and regional behavior can materially change the result.
