Pricing & Billing
Your costs on Databend Cloud consist of the following components: warehouses, storage, and cloud service fees. This page contains information about the pricing of each component and how the billing works.
Databend Cloud Pricing
This section provides pricing information on warehouse, storage, and cloud service.
Warehouse Pricing
Your warehouses incur costs when they are running (specifically, when in the Running state). The cost depends on the warehouse's size and running time. Billing is calculated on a per-second basis. For example, if you have a warehouse running for three seconds, you will be charged for that exact duration.
The size of a warehouse refers to the number of vCPUs it contains, and prices vary based on the different sizes available and the Databend Cloud edition you use.
| Size (vCPUs) | Hourly Cost (Standard) | Hourly Cost (Business) |
|---|---|---|
| XSmall (8) | $1.00 | $1.50 |
| Small (16) | $2.00 | $3.00 |
| Medium (32) | $4.00 | $6.00 |
| Large (64) | $8.00 | $12.00 |
| XLarge (128) | $16.00 | $24.00 |
A suspended warehouse does not consume any resources. By default, Databend Cloud automatically suspends a warehouse after five minutes of inactivity to save resources and costs. You can adjust or disable this automatic suspension feature according to your preferences.
Storage Pricing
Your data in Databend Cloud is physically stored in Amazon S3. Storage costs in Databend Cloud are based on Amazon S3's pricing. Currently, both the Standard Edition and Business Edition are priced at $23.00 per month per terabyte (TB).
| Edition | Price per TB per Month |
|---|---|
| Standard Edition | $23.00 |
| Business Edition | $23.00 |
Cloud Service Pricing
The cloud service fee currently includes fees for the API requests. Each time you run a SQL query with Databend Cloud, a REST API request is sent to the databend-query through the Databend HTTP handler. In the Standard Edition, you are billed $1 for every 10,000 API requests, while in the Business Edition, the cost is $2 for every 10,000 API requests.
| Edition | Cost per 10,000 API Requests |
|---|---|
| Standard Edition | $1.00 |
| Business Edition | $2.00 |
Databend Cloud Billing
The billing period is set for every calendar month, starting from the 1st day to the last day of the month. For your first month, the billing period will begin on the day your organization was created.
To check your billing details, go to Manage and then click on Billing. From there, you can review your bills and link a credit card for payment.
When billing users, Databend Cloud applies coupons first. If multiple coupons are available, the system prioritizes deduction from the coupon with the earliest expiration date. Please ensure coupons are used before their expiration date.
