The short version

  • Each has a real cost: Domino Data Lab pricing is by quote only: the pricing page publishes no rate and no minimum, and the tier breakdown is behind a downloadable datasheet form; Amazon Redshift ML free tier covers only two CREATE MODEL requests per month for two months, capped at 100,000 cells per request; beyond that training is metered at $20 per million cells for the first 10 million, dropping in tiers to $7 per million cells over 100 million
  • They diverge on capability: Domino Data Lab covers Reproducible environments, Amazon Redshift ML covers SQL-based ML.

Where each one falls short

Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.

Domino Data Lab

  • Pricing is by quote only: the pricing page publishes no rate and no minimum, and the tier breakdown is behind a downloadable datasheet form
  • Licensing is split by user type, with separate data science professional, data analyst, service account and admin licences
  • FinOps, Nexus and Governance are paid add on modules rather than part of the platform
  • Support level is a separate priced choice
  • Self managed VPC or on premises deployment requires the Premium tier or higher
  • No free trial is offered on the pricing page

Amazon Redshift ML

  • Free tier covers only two CREATE MODEL requests per month for two months, capped at 100,000 cells per request; beyond that training is metered at $20 per million cells for the first 10 million, dropping in tiers to $7 per million cells over 100 million
