What is Node price from?

In short

The monthly cost of the cheapest paid compute node in a managed Kubernetes or cloud platform.

A node price is the cost of one machine's worth of compute in a cluster, and the cheapest paid node is where a small deployment starts. The entry paid plan is quoted per month when billed monthly. Civo lists $5.43, AceCloud $11, Astronomer $0.13 and Aruba Cloud €18.98. BizFly Cloud quotes VND 116,820 in its own currency, so compare after conversion. Node cost scales with cluster size, which is why the entry figure matters most for a first cluster.
