A six node cluster
With realistic egress, which is often a large share of the bill

Redis Cost Estimator
Enter your own rates and the shape of the deployment. Compute, egress and backup are separated, because egress is frequently the surprise.

Nothing else to flag.
No formatting problems, and nothing the rules object to. Worth remembering what that covers: this reads the file you pasted, not the account or cluster it will be applied to.
No finding matches that filter.
Examples
Real input you can load into the tool above. Each one shows a different thing going wrong, because that is what the tool is for.
Compute only
The same cluster with no cross-zone traffic, for comparison

Common mistakes
These are the ones that fail silently. The config is accepted, nothing raises an error, and the consequence arrives later.
Costing instances and stopping there
Cross-zone replication, consumer egress, backups and snapshots are all billed separately and frequently exceed compute.
Instead:Include every line. Egress in particular surprises people.
Provisioning memory as though all of it is usable
Only 60 to 70% is available for data once buffers and fork headroom are accounted for.
Instead:Cost the usable capacity, not the provisioned figure.
Committing to reserved capacity before rightsizing
A commitment on capacity you did not need locks the waste in for a year.
Instead:Rightsize first, then commit to what remains.
