Thread: Question about AWS Calculator

I am using http://calculator.s3.amazonaws.com/index.html to calculate the cost of RDS vs EC2.  Assuming that I am going for only a 2 node setup (master and slave), few questions:

1.  In EC2 how do I indicate that I need two nodes so that I can set up streaming replication between them for HA.  Do I mention 2 as number of DB Instance or just add two rows.

2. I understand that in EC2 I can also pick the two nodes in different availability zones and pay for replication data transfer between those zones.  Am I right ?

3. In RDS it seems HA is built in without the need to mention nodes, be is same zone or MZ.  So how does user pick number of read replicas.

thanks.
