Pricing for Managed Service for PostgreSQL
In this section, you can find Managed Service for PostgreSQL pricing rules and effective prices for the service's resources.
Cluster status
Pricing is applied differently depending on the cluster status:
- For a
Running
cluster, you are charged both for the computing resources and the size of storage and backup. - For a
Stopped
cluster, you are only charged for the storage and backup size.
What goes into the cost of using Managed Service for PostgreSQL
The Managed Service for PostgreSQL usage cost is based on:
-
Storage type and size (disk space).
-
The computing resources allocated to the hosts in the cluster.
-
Settings and number of backups.
-
Outgoing traffic from Nebius AI to the internet.
In all calculations, 1 GB = 230 bytes.
DB host usage
The cost is calculated for each hour of the host's operation in accordance with its class. Exact class characteristics are given in PostgreSQL host classes.
The minimum billing unit is a minute (for example, 1.5 minutes of host usage cost the same as 2 minutes). You are not charged for time when the PostgreSQL host is not performing its main functions.
Disk space usage
The following is charged:
-
Storage allocated for DB clusters.
-
Space used by DB backups in excess of the storage amount specified for the cluster.
Note
The cluster's storage size is equal to the total storage size of all of its hosts.
-
Backups are stored free of charge as long as the combined size of the database and all backups is less than the storage volume selected.
-
During an automatic backup, Managed Service for PostgreSQL does not create a new copy but saves changes to the database compared to the previous copy. This means that storage used by automatic backups increases only in proportion to the volume of changes that are made.
-
Adding hosts increases the cluster's total storage size and, consequently, the size of free backups.
-
The cost is specified for one month of use and is based on 720 hours per month. The minimum billing unit is 1 GB per minute (for example, storing 1 GB for 1.5 minutes costs the same as storing 1 GB for 2 minutes).
Pricing
All prices are shown without any applicable taxes, including VAT. To learn more about the taxes calculation, see Taxes.
The monthly usage rate is based on 720 hours a month.
Host computing resources
Resource | Cost per hour |
---|---|
Intel Ice Lake | |
100% vCPU | $0.017 |
RAM (for 1 GB) | $0.0094 |
Storage and backups
Service | Cost of 1 GB per month |
---|---|
HDD network storage | $0.024 |
Non-replicated SSD storage | $0.0624 |
Network SSD storage | $0.084 |
Backups beyond the storage size | $0.02 |
Pricing for backup storage has the following specifics:
-
Backups are stored free of charge as long as the combined size of the database and all backups is less than the total storage size.
-
Adding a host increases the total cost per cluster. However, expenses for storing backups beyond the storage size will be lower due to the increased total storage size.
-
To reduce expenses for storing backups beyond the storage size:
- Delete backups created manually.
-
The total backup size is a sum of data copy and WAL sizes. The size of WAL data depends on the amount of made changes and is comparable to the backup size. You can get both values with a list of backups.
