For the USD9750 I was referring to Starter Package (Support | Dgraph) to compare with Neptune that has ACL and backups. The Dgraph Enterprise Package (? $$$) has/will-have Encryption, which Neptune already has. If you want ACL and encryption on dgraph then it is a closed-source paid-service. A db.r5.xlarge costs $0.84 per Hour and a r5.xlarge costs $0.302 per Hour, although the db ec2 includes db management. If Dgraph offered Enterprise on AWS marketplace, like TigerGraph ( AWS Marketplace: TigerGraph Version 2 (Enterprise Edition)), what would be the cost (p.a., per hour, etc.) and recommendations?
