Managed Service for PostgreSQL pricing policy
In this section, you can find the Managed Service for PostgreSQL pricing policy and effective prices for its resources.
To calculate the cost of using the service, use the calculator on the Yandex Cloud website or see the pricing in this section.
Note
Currency of Service rates (prices) depends on the company you made a contract with:
- Prices in US dollars are applicable to customers of Iron Hive doo Beograd (Serbia) or Direct Cursus Technology L.L.C. (Dubai).
- Prices in Russian roubles are applicable to customers of Yandex.Cloud LLC.
Cluster 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.
Alert
If a cluster uses local SSD storage (local-ssd
), its computing resources are not released when it's stopped. This means that you are charged in full even for a stopped cluster.
What goes into the cost of using Managed Service for PostgreSQL
The Managed Service for PostgreSQL usage cost is based on:
-
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.
DB host usage
Host operation cost is charged per hour based on host class. You can find detailed class specifications in the Host classes section.
The minimum billing unit is one minute (for example, 1.5 minutes of host operation cost the same as 2 minutes). You do not pay for the time when the PostgreSQL host is unable to perform its main functions.
Disk space usage
You pay for the following:
-
Storage allocated for DB 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 broker hosts.
-
-
Space used by DB backups in excess of the storage amount specified for the cluster.
Note
The cluster's storage size is equal to the total storage size of all of its hosts.
-
Backups are stored free of charge as long as the combined size of the DB and all backups is smaller than the selected storage size.
-
When performing automatic backups, Managed Service for PostgreSQL does not create a new copy but saves the data changed from the previous backup. It means the storage space used by automatic backups only increases in proportion to the volume of changes.
-
Adding hosts increases the cluster's total storage size and, consequently, the free volume of backups.
-
The price covers one month of use based on 720 hours per month. The minimum billing unit is 1 GB per minute (for example, storing 1 GB for 1.5 minutes costs the same as storing 1 GB for 2 minutes).
Discount for committed volumes 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:
- Go to Billing
. - Click on the desired billing account.
- Choose Committed volume in the left-hand menu.
A CVoS guarantees a discount on usage, but does not guarantee the availability of the resources ordered. You can read more about CVoS in the Yandex Cloud Billing documentation.
Managed Service for PostgreSQL provides two types of CVoS: on vCPUs and on RAM for the hosts you are planning to use in your DB 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.
Note
CVoS discount is only available for certain types of resources. A dash in the relevant CVoS columns under Prices means the resource is not supported. Currently, you cannot order storage or web traffic this way.
Prices for the Russia region
Warning
Prices for Yandex Cloud resources vary from region to region. For more information about the available regions, see Regions.
The currency that can be used to pay for resources depends on which legal entity the user has entered into agreement with. For more information about account registration, see Registering an account in Yandex Cloud.
All prices below do not include VAT.
The monthly usage rate is based on 720 hours a month.

Storage and backups
Note
Access to the following storage types is provided on request:
- Ultra high-speed network storage with three replicas (SSD).
- Local SSD storage if using standard hosts based on Intel Cascade Lake processors.
Contact technical support
Service | Price of 1 GB per month |
---|---|
Network HDD storage | $0.025600 |
Non-replicated SSD storage | $0.070400 |
Network SSD storage | $0.104080 |
High-performance SSD storage | $0.174240 |
Local SSD storage | $0.104080 |
Backups beyond the storage size | $0.015360 |
Pricing for backup storage has the following specifics:
-
Backups are stored free of charge as long as the combined size of the database and all backups is less than the total storage size.
-
Adding a host increases the total cost per cluster. However, expenses for storing backups beyond the storage size will be lower due to the increased total storage size.
-
To reduce expenses for storing backups beyond the storage size:
- Reduce the retention period of automatic backups in the advanced settings.
- Delete backups created manually.
-
The total backup size is a sum of data copy and WAL sizes. The size of WAL data depends on the amount of made changes and is comparable to the backup size. You can get both values with a list of backups.
Outgoing 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 are provided free of charge every month.
The minimum billing unit is 1 MB.
Resource category | Cost of 1 GB |
---|---|
Outgoing traffic, 100 GB or less per month | Free |
Outgoing traffic, over 100 GB per month | $0.012240 |
