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

The prices apply differently depending on the cluster status:

• For a Running cluster, you pay for both the computing resources and the size of your storage and backups.
• For a Stopped cluster, you only pay for the size of your storage and backups.

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:

• Disk type and storage size.

• Computing resources allocated to the cluster hosts.

• 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

  There are two cost components: the Yandex Compute Cloud computing resources and the 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., 1.5 minutes of host operation cost the same as two minutes. You will not be charged for the time when the MySQL® host is unavailable for basic operations.

Disk space usageDisk space usage

You pay 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 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 × $0.0151 + 8 × $0.0041) = $0.19

Total: $0.19, cost of operation of MySQL® hosts per hour.

Where:

• 3: Number of MySQL® hosts.
• 2: Number of vCPUs.
• $0.0151: Cost of using 100% vCPU per hour.
• 8: Amount of RAM per MySQL® host (in GB).
• $0.0041: Cost of using 1 GB of RAM at 100% vCPU per hour.

Calculation for the storage cost and total cost:

720 × $0.19 + 3 × (100 × $0.0288) = $144.72

Total: $144.72, cost of using the cluster for 30 days.

Where:

• 720: Number of hours in 30 days.
• $0.19, cost of operation of MySQL® hosts per hour.
• 3: Number of MySQL® hosts.
• 100: Amount of network HDD storage (in GB).
• $0.0288: 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 6 or 12 months ahead. To view the resources eligible for this discount:

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

A CVoS guarantees a discount on usage, but does not guarantee the availability of the resources you order. You can read more about CVoS in the relevant Yandex Cloud Billing article.

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 estimate 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 prices are based on 720 hours per month.

There are two cost components: the Yandex Compute Cloud computing resources and the Managed Service for MySQL® markup on these resources.

Outgoing trafficOutgoing 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.
