Managed Service for MySQL® pricing policy

In this section, you can find the Managed Service for MySQL® pricing policy and effective prices for its resources.

The prices for service products are also available in the price list.

All prices below do not include VAT.

Cluster statusCluster status

Pricing is applied differently depending on the cluster status:

• For a Running cluster, you are charged both for the computing resources and the size of storage and backup.
• For a Stopped cluster, you are only charged for the storage and backup size.

What goes into the cost of using Managed Service for MySQL®What goes into the cost of using Managed Service for MySQL®

The Managed Service for MySQL® usage cost includes:

• Storage type and size (disk space).

• The computing resources allocated to the hosts in the cluster.

• Settings and number of backups.

• Outgoing traffic from Yandex Cloud to the internet.

In all calculations: 1 GB = 2³⁰ bytes, 1 MB = 2²⁰ bytes.

Database host usageDatabase host usage

There are different ways to calculate the cost depending on the host type:

• Standard hosts

  The host operation cost is charged per hour based on what computing resources you allocate for it.

• Dedicated hosts

  The cost is a sum of the price for Yandex Compute Cloud computing resources and Managed Service for MySQL® markup on these resources.

You can find the supported resource configurations in the Host classes section. For the vCPU and RAM prices, see Prices.

The minimum billing unit is one minute, e.g., you will be charged for 2 minutes when using a host for 90 seconds (1.5 minutes). You will not be charged for the time when the MySQL® host is unavailable for basic operations.

Disk space usageDisk space usage

You are charged for the following:

• Storage allocated for database clusters.

  • You can only order local SSD storage (local-ssd) for clusters with three or more hosts:
    * For Intel Broadwell and Intel Cascade Lake: In increments of 100 GB.

    • For Intel Ice Lake: In increments of 368 GB.

  • You can only order non-replicated SSD storage (network-ssd-nonreplicated) in 93 GB increments for clusters with three or more hosts.

• Amount of storage used by database backups that exceeds the allocated cluster storage.

  • Backups are stored free of charge as long as the combined size of the database and all backups is smaller than the selected storage size.

  • The number of hosts in a cluster does not affect the storage size and, consequently, the amount of free backups.

The price covers one month of use based on 720 hours per month. The minimum billing unit is 1 GB per minute; e.g., storing 1 GB for 90 seconds (1.5 minutes) costs the same as for 2 minutes.

Example of cluster cost calculationExample of cluster cost calculation

Let's calculate the cost of using a cluster with the following properties for 30 days:

• MySQL® hosts: Three s3-c2-m8 hosts: Intel Ice Lake, 2 × 100% vCPU, 8 GB RAM.
• Storage: 100 GB of network HDD storage.

Cost calculation for MySQL® hosts:

3 × (2 × $0.015120 + 8 × $0.004140) = $0.190080

Total: $0.190080, cost of operation of MySQL® hosts per hour.

Where:

• 3: Number of MySQL® hosts.
• 2: Number of vCPUs.
• $0.015120: Cost of using 100% vCPU per hour.
• 8: Amount of RAM per MySQL® host (in GB).
• $0.004140: Cost of using 1 GB of RAM at 100% vCPU per hour.

Calculation for the storage cost and total cost:

720 × $0.190080 + 3 × (100 × $0.028800) = $145.497600

Total: $145.497600, cost of using the cluster for 30 days.

Where:

• 720: Number of hours in 30 days.
• $0.190080, cost of operation of MySQL® hosts per hour.
• 3: Number of MySQL® hosts.
• 100: Amount of network HDD storage (in GB).
• $0.028800: Cost of using 1 GB of network HDD storage per month.

Discount for committed volume of services (CVoS)Discount for committed volume of services (CVoS)

You can get a guaranteed discount on service resource usage when you plan for six months or one year ahead. To see the resources you can get a discount on:

1. Go to Yandex Cloud Billing.
2. Click on the desired billing account.
3. Select Committed volume in the left-hand menu.

A CVoS guarantees a discount on consumption but does not guarantee the availability of the resources you order. Read more about CVoS in the Yandex Cloud Billing documentation.

Managed Service for MySQL® provides two types of CVoS: on vCPUs and on RAM for the hosts you are going to use in your database clusters. In the management console, you can see how much you can potentially save with CVoS at the current consumption level. You can also forecast your monthly payments for the required number of vCPUs and RAM.

Prices for the Russia regionPrices for the Russia region

Host prices are calculated in different ways depending on the selected host type.

The price of local SSD storage (local-ssd) also depends on the host type.

The monthly usage rate is based on 720 hours a month.

The dedicated host cost is a sum of the price for Yandex Compute Cloud computing resources and Managed Service for MySQL® markup on these resources.

Outbound trafficOutbound traffic

When using the service, you pay for traffic from Yandex Cloud to the internet. Traffic between internal IP addresses of Yandex Cloud services and incoming internet traffic is free.

The first 100 GB of outgoing traffic per month are free of charge.

The minimum billing unit is 1 MB.
