Billable items and billing rules

The following table describes how the fees for each billable item are calculated.

Category

Billable item

Billing method

Description

Reserved resource fee

  • Reserved computing resources

  • Reserved storage resources

Pay-as-you-go

Subscription

Note

ACU-hour plans can be used to offset the reserved resources of pay-as-you-go clusters.

Billing scope:

  • You are billed for reserved resources or storage resources when you create a cluster.

  • You are billed for changed reserved resources when you scale up a cluster.

Billing unit:

The resources are bundled into units and sold as AnalyticDB compute units (ACUs). Each ACU is approximately equal to 1 core and 4 GB memory.

Fee calculation:

Reserved resource fee = Unit price per ACU × (Number of ACUs for reserved computing resources + Number of ACUs for reserved storage resources) × Usage duration

Elastic resource fee

ACU elastic resources

Pay-as-you-go

Note

Only ACU-hour plans can be used to offset ACU elastic resources.

Billing scope:

  • Scheduled scaling: When you use a scaling plan to scale resources, you are billed for the consumed elastic resources after the scaling is executed.

  • Auto scaling:

    • When you use an interactive resource group that has the multi-cluster feature enabled to develop jobs, you are billed for the cluster resources consumed in addition to reserved resources.

    • When you use a job resource group to run jobs, you are billed for the elastic resources consumed in addition to reserved resources.

Billing unit:

The resources are bundled into units and sold as ACUs. Each ACU is approximately equal to 1 core and 4 GB memory.

Fee calculation:

Elastic resource fee = Unit price of ACU elastic resources × Number of ACUs × Usage duration

Viewing information:

You can log on to the AnalyticDB for MySQL console and go to the Resource Management page to view the amount of used elastic resources.

Spot instance resources

Pay-as-you-go

Billing scope:

After you enable the spot instance feature, you are billed for the idle Spark executor resources that are used by Spark jobs in the AnalyticDB for MySQL resource pool. The price of spot instance resources is lower than the price of ACU elastic resources.

Important

Spot instance resources can be used for on-demand scaling scenarios, but not scheduled scaling scenarios.

Billing unit:

The resources are bundled into units and sold as ACUs. Each ACU is approximately equal to 1 core and 4 GB memory.

Fee calculation:

Spot instance resource fee = Unit price of spot instance resources × Number of ACUs × Usage duration

Viewing information:

You can log on to the AnalyticDB for MySQL console and go to the Resource Management page to view the amount of used spot instance resources.

Remote build data

Pay-as-you-go

Billing scope:

After you enable the compaction service, you are billed for the data that is remotely built by the XUANWU_V2 engine in the independent resource pool of the compaction service.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is GB.

Fee calculation:

Remote build data fee = Unit price of remote build data × Amount of remote build data

Data storage fee

  • Hot data storage

  • Cold data storage

Pay-as-you-go

Note

Storage plans can be used to offset the costs of storage.

Billing scope:

The amount of space occupied by data stored in the cluster.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is GB.

Fee calculation:

Storage fee = Hot data storage fee + Cold data storage fee

  • Hot data storage fee = Unit price of hot data storage × Data amount × Usage duration × 2

    Note

    Data Lakehouse Edition uses a multi-replica storage architecture. This way, the hot data storage fee of Data Lakehouse Edition must be calculated by doubling the pay-as-you-go price.

  • Cold data storage fee = Unit price of cold data storage × Data amount × Usage duration

Viewing information:

You can log on to the AnalyticDB for MySQL console and go to the Monitoring Information page to view the amount of storage used for hot data and cold data.

ADB lake storage - Standard

Pay-as-you-go

Billing scope:

After you enable the lake storage feature, you are billed for the lake storage space occupied by the cluster data.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is GB.

Fee calculation:

ADB lake storage fee = Unit price of ADB managed lake storage × Data storage amount × Usage duration

Viewing information:

You can log on to the AnalyticDB for MySQL console and go to the Lake Storage page to view the lake storage data amount.

Cache storage fee

Disk cache size

Pay-as-you-go

Billing scope:

  • After you enable the disk cache feature, the XUANWU_V2 engine tables stored in Object Storage Service (OSS) are cached on Enterprise SSDs (ESSDs). You are billed for the cache size that you specify when you enable the disk cache feature on an hourly basis.

  • After you enable the wide table engine feature, the disk cache automatically becomes available. You can modify the disk cache size based on your business requirements. You are charged for the disk cache size that you specify on an hourly basis.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is GB.

Fee calculation:

Disk cache storage fee = Unit price of disk cache storage × Disk cache size × Usage duration

Data Lake Storage Query Acceleration

Pay-as-you-go

Billing scope:

After you enable the lake cache feature and specify the cache size, OSS objects that are frequently accessed are cached in the cache space. You are billed based on the cache size that you specify when you enable the lake cache feature.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is GB.

Fee calculation:

Lake cache storage fee = Unit price of lake cache storage × Lake cache size × Usage duration

Backup storage fee

Data backup size

Pay-as-you-go

Billing scope:

After you create an AnalyticDB for MySQL cluster, the data backup feature is automatically enabled for the cluster. The latest backup sets of the cluster are retained free of charge. If a cluster contains multiple data backup sets, you are charged for the data backup sets other than the most recent one based on the pay-as-you-go billing method.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is GB.

Fee calculation:

Data backup storage fee = Unit price of data backup storage × (Total backup set size - Free backup set size) × Usage duration

Viewing information:

You can log on to the AnalyticDB for MySQL console and go to the Backup and Restoration page to view the total backup set size and the free backup set size.

Request fee

ADB lake storage - PUT requests (Standard)

Billing unit:

The billing unit is 10,000 requests.

Fee calculation:

ADB lake storage - PUT request fee = Unit price of ADB lake storage - PUT requests × Number of requests

ADB lake storage - GET requests (Standard)

Billing scope:

After you enable lake storage, you are billed for the number of GET requests to OSS API per hour.

Billing unit:

The billing unit is 10,000 requests.

Fee calculation:

Billing examples

Note

The following billing examples are provided for reference only. Please refer to the service console or buy page to obtain the actual prices of individual resources.

Example 1

You purchase a subscription Data Lakehouse Edition cluster in the China (Hangzhou) region. The cluster has 32 ACUs of reserved computing resources and 24 ACUs of reserved storage resources. The subscription period is three months.

The following table describes the fees for individual resources.

Category

Billable item

Fee

Reserved resources

Reserved computing resources

USD 21.54 per ACU-month × 32 ACUs × 3 months = USD 2,067.84

Reserved storage resources

USD 21.54 per ACU-month × 24 ACUs × 3 months = USD 1,550.88

Total fees for three months = USD 2,067.84 + USD 1,550.88 = USD 3,618.72.

Example 2

You purchase a pay-as-you-go Data Lakehouse Edition cluster in the China (Hangzhou) region.

  • Reserved resources: The cluster has 32 ACUs of reserved computing resources and 24 ACUs of reserved storage resources.

  • Elastic resources: A job resource group that has 0 ACUs of reserved resources is created. The job resource group is used to run a Spark job of 2 cores and 4 GB memory (equivalent to 2 × 0.8 ACUs) for 1 hour.

  • Data storage: The cluster stores 100 GB of hot data and 260 GB of cold data.

The following table describes the fees for individual resources.

Category

Billable item

Fee

Reserved resources

Reserved computing resources

USD 0.04615 per ACU-hour × 32 ACUs × 1 hour = USD 1.4768

Reserved storage resources

USD 0.04615 per ACU-hour × 24 ACUs × 1 hour = USD 1.1076

Elastic resources

ACU elastic resources

USD 0.04615 per ACU-hour × 2 × 0.8 ACUs × 1 hour = USD 0.07384

Data storage

Hot data storage

USD 0.00022 per GB-hour × 100 GB × 1 hour × 2 = USD 0.044

Cold data storage

USD 0.000028 per GB-hour × 260 GB × 1 hour = USD 0.00728

Total fees per hour = USD 1.4768 + USD 1.1076 + USD 0.07384 + USD 0.044 + USD 0.00728 = USD 2.70952.
