This topic describes the billable resources and billing methods for E-MapReduce (EMR) Serverless StarRocks.
Billable resources
Billable item | Description |
The total computing resources for operations in StarRocks, such as data writes and queries, are measured in compute units (CUs). Fees vary based on the selected specification type. The following specification types are supported:
| |
The amount of data that you store on cloud disks in StarRocks.
| |
The amount of data that you store on elastic ephemeral disks in StarRocks. For more information about elastic ephemeral disks, see Elastic ephemeral disks. | |
Data storage fees are incurred when you use a Shared-data instance. This data storage has lower performance than cloud disk storage. If the Multi-zone Disaster Recovery feature is enabled for your Shared-data instance, the following fees are also incurred:
| |
When you use a Storage-Compute Integrated Edition instance and enable the backup feature, you will incur data backup fees. |
Specification fees
For actual prices, see the product buy page.
Data storage fees apply only to Shared-data instances. Data storage supports only the pay-as-you-go billing method.

Billing methods
Billing method | Description |
Subscription is an upfront billing method. You pay for instances when you purchase them. This billing method is ideal for long-term needs and is more cost-effective than pay-as-you-go. Longer subscription durations provide greater discounts. You can request a self-service refund for subscription instances. For more information, see Unsubscription rules for the international site. Important You cannot change the billing method of an instance from subscription to pay-as-you-go. | |
Pay-as-you-go is a post-paid billing method. The system generates a bill each hour based on the instance specifications. The fee is then deducted from your Alibaba Cloud account. This billing method is suitable for short-term needs. For example, create a pay-as-you-go instance for testing. Delete the instance immediately after use to save costs. Important Computing resources are billed on an hourly basis even if no tasks are running in the instance. |
