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

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

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.

All prices in RUB and KZT are inclusive of VAT; in USD, net of 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.

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 Sharded PostgreSQLWhat goes into the cost of using Managed Service for Sharded PostgreSQL

The Managed Service for Sharded PostgreSQL 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

The host operation cost is charged per hour based on the host class. For detailed class specifications, see Host classes.

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 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.

  • Space occupied by DB backups beyond the storage size 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 Sharded PostgreSQL does not create a new backup but saves the database changes introduced since the previous one. This means the storage space used by automatic backups increases only in proportion to the size of updates.

    • Adding hosts increases the cluster's total storage size and, consequently, the free amount of 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.

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 PostgreSQL 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 your current consumption level. You can also estimate your monthly payments for the required number of vCPUs and RAM.

Note

A CVoS discount is only available for certain resource types. For unsupported resource types, the relevant CVoS columns under Prices are blank. Currently, you cannot order storage or web traffic this way.

Prices for the Russia regionPrices for the Russia region

Note

Yandex Cloud resources are priced differently in different regions. For more information about the available regions, see Regions.

Your payment currency is determined by your contracting legal entity. For more information on creating an account, see Registering an account in Yandex Cloud.

The monthly prices are based on 720 hours per month.

Note

Access to the Intel Ice Lake (Compute Optimized) platform is available upon request. Contact support or your account manager.

Note

Access to local SSD storage when using standard Intel Ice Lake hosts is provided upon request. Contact support or your account manager.

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 smaller 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 for automatic backups in the advanced settings.
    • Delete the backups created manually.
  • The total backup size is defined as the sum of the data copy size and the WAL size. The WAL size depends on the number of changes and can exceed the size of the data copy. You can get both values from the backup list.

Note

The prices indicated are valid from June 16, 2026.
