What about persistent storage and access costs ? And couldn't that then over time increase managed k8s costs significantly ?

We focused on estimating the minimum/entry-level cost of Kubernetes here.

If you have a data intensive service, it surely would add up, but it's not specific to Kubernetes. If you go with VMs or a Serverless deployment, you'll have to pay it too.

If you're speaking about the storage and data transfers related to the Kubernetes control plane itself, I don't believe it represents a significant cost, even with a large cluster.
