E-MapReduce:Billable items

Last Updated:Mar 26, 2026

EMR Serverless StarRocks charges for compute and storage resources separately. Your total cost is the sum of all billable items that apply to your instance type and configuration.

Compute CUs

All compute operations in StarRocks — data writes, queries, and background tasks — consume compute units (CUs). Fees vary based on the specification type selected for your instance.

Five specification types are available:

Specification typeResources per unitStorageBest for
Standard1 CU = 1 CPU core + 4 GiB memoryESSD (cloud disk)General workloads; default recommended choice
Memory-enhanced1 RCU = 1 CPU core + 8 GiB memoryESSD (cloud disk)Memory-intensive workloads with complex queries or high concurrency
Network-enhanced1 NCU = 1 CPU core + 4 GiB memoryESSD (cloud disk)Scanning large volumes of data in external tables; network bandwidth exceeds 2× the Standard specification
High-performance StorageSelect by node specificationLocal SSDWorkloads with strict I/O performance requirements
Large-capacity StorageSelect by node specificationLocal HDDExtremely large data volumes where storage cost matters more than I/O speed

Cloud disk storage

Cloud disk storage charges are based on the volume of data stored on cloud disks within your StarRocks instance.

What's included depends on your architecture:

  • Shared-nothing Architecture: Cloud disk usage for actual frontend (FE) and backend (BE) nodes.

  • Shared-data Architecture: Cloud disk usage for FE nodes, plus cloud disk used for data caching by compute nodes (CNs).

Multi-zone Disaster Recovery adds two additional cost components for Shared-data instances:

  • Extra OBSERVER FE nodes, billed as OBSERVER Compute Resources at the same CU unit price. See Compute CU fees.

  • Multi-zone OSS backup, billed at the multi-zone data storage rate and combined with your data storage fees (not listed separately). See Multi-zone data storage fees.

Elastic ephemeral disk storage

Elastic ephemeral disk storage charges are based on the volume of data stored on elastic ephemeral disks. For details on how elastic ephemeral disks work, see Elastic ephemeral disks.

Data storage

Data storage fees apply only to Shared-data instances. This storage type uses Object Storage Service (OSS) as the backend and has lower I/O performance than cloud disk storage. Data storage supports only pay-as-you-go billing.

Data backup

Data backup fees apply when you use a Storage-Compute Integrated Edition instance and enable the backup feature.
