In one line

Charged against the size of the database it fronts. No per-request fee exists.

What gets missed

vCPU-hours of the underlying instance, or ACU-hours for Aurora Serverless, bill at zero connections. Billing runs per second with a 10-minute floor after a status change, and extra endpoints add PrivateLink charges.
