The short version

  • Only Apache Spark has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: Site24x7 website and infrastructure monitoring are sold as separate plan tracks; the entry Web Uptime plan ($9/month annual) covers only 25 websites and does not include server monitoring, which requires a separate Lite infrastructure plan; Apache Spark licensed under Apache License 2.0 per spark.apache.org; as open source software it has no paid tier or vendor price to compare
