AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL:Billable items

Last Updated:Nov 08, 2023

This topic describes the billable items and billing rules of AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL.

Usage notes

The prices that are provided in this topic are for reference only. See the service console to obtain the actual prices of individual resources.

Coordinator node CUs

Important

You are not charged for coordinator node compute units (CUs) during public preview.

Billing method

Fee calculation

Pay-as-you-go

You are billed based on the specifications and usage duration of coordinator node CUs.

Coordinator node CU fee = Unit price per coordinator node CU × Usage duration

Note
  • Coordinator node resources of 8 CUs or lower specifications can be used for free.

  • You are charged only for the additional specifications beyond 8 CUs.

Subscription

Computing resources

Elastic storage mode

Edition

Billing method

Fee calculation

Example

High-performance Edition (Basic Edition)

  • Pay-as-you-go

  • Subscription

You are billed based on the compute node specifications, the number of compute nodes, and the usage duration.

Computing resource fee = Unit price per compute node × Number of compute nodes × Usage duration

  • Pay-as-you-go

    You purchase a pay-as-you-go instance in the China (Beijing) region. The instance uses four compute nodes that each provide 2 cores and 16 GB memory. The instance is used for 2,000 hours. The computing resource fee is calculated by using the following formula: USD 0.521 per hour × 4 × 2,000 hours = USD 4,168.

  • Subscription

    You purchase a subscription instance in the China (Beijing) region. The instance uses four compute nodes that each provide 2 cores and 16 GB memory. The subscription period is three months. The computing resource fee is calculated by using the following formula: USD 249.95 per month × 4 × 3 months = USD 2,999.4.

High-availability Edition

Serverless mode

Scheduling mode

Billing method

Fee calculation

Example

Manual

Pay-as-you-go

You are billed based on the compute node specifications, the number of compute nodes, and the usage duration.

Computing resource fee = Unit price per compute node × Number of compute nodes × Usage duration

You purchase a pay-as-you-go instance in the China (Beijing) region. The instance uses four compute nodes that each provide 2 cores and 8 GB memory. The instance is used for 2,000 hours. The computing resource fee is calculated by using the following formula: USD 0.186 per hour × 4 × 2,000 hours = USD 1,488.

Automatic

Pay-as-you-go

You are billed based on the number of AnalyticDB compute units (ACUs) and the usage duration.

Computing resource fee = Unit price per ACU × Number of ACUs × Usage duration

You are not charged for computing resources during public preview of automatic scheduling.

Storage resources

Elastic storage mode

Edition

Storage type

Billing method

Fee calculation

Example

High-performance Edition (Basic Edition)

PL1 enhanced SSD (ESSD)

Same as the billing methods for computing resources

You are billed based on the storage type, the storage size per node, the number of compute nodes, and the usage duration.

Storage resource fee = Unit price of storage × Storage size per node × Number of compute nodes × Usage duration

  • Pay-as-you-go

    You purchase a High-availability Edition instance in elastic storage mode in the China (Beijing) region. The instance uses PL1 ESSDs and four compute nodes that each provide 100 GB of storage. The instance is used for 2,000 hours. The computing resource fee is calculated by using the following formula: USD 0.00066667 per GB-hour per node × 100 GB × 4 × 2,000 hours = USD 533.336.

  • Subscription

    You purchase a High-availability Edition instance in elastic storage mode in the China (Beijing) region. The instance uses PL1 ESSDs and four compute nodes that each provide 100 GB of storage. The subscription period is three months. The computing resource fee is calculated by using the following formula: USD 0.32 per GB-month per node × 100 GB × 4 × 3 months = USD 384.

High-availability Edition

  • PL1 enhanced SSD (ESSD)

  • Ultra disk

Note

AnalyticDB for PostgreSQL supports tiered storage of hot and cold data. The cold data that is stored in Object Storage Service incurs storage costs. For more information, see Tiered storage of hot and cold data.

Serverless mode

Billing method

Fee calculation

Pay-as-you-go

You are billed based on the storage actually occupied (including basic data and backup data) and the usage duration.

Storage resource fee = (Basic data size + Backup data size) × Unit price of storage × Usage duration

Backup

Elastic storage mode

The backup and restoration feature is available free of charge during public preview. You may be charged for this feature in the future.

Serverless mode

The backup and restoration feature is not separately billed. Backup data occupies storage and may incur storage fees. For more information about storage resource fees, see the "Storage resources" section of this topic.
