# Managed Service for Sharded PostgreSQL pricing policy



This section describes the Managed Service for Sharded PostgreSQL pricing [policy](#rules) and [current prices](#prices) for its resources.

The prices for service products are also available in the [price list](https://yandex.cloud/en/price-list).

{% note info %}

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.

{% endnote %}

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

## Cluster status {#running-stopped}

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.

{% note 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.

{% endnote %}

## What goes into the cost of using Managed Service for Sharded PostgreSQL {#rules}

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 = 2<sup>30</sup> bytes, 1 MB = 2<sup>20</sup> bytes.

### Database host usage {#rules-hosts-uptime}

The host operation cost is charged per hour based on the host class. For detailed class specifications, see [Host classes](concepts/instance-types.md).

The minimum billing unit is one minute, e.g., 1.5 minutes of host usage is billed as 2 minutes. You are not billed for downtime periods when the host cannot perform its primary functions.

### Disk space usage {#rules-storage}

You are billed for the following:

* Storage allocated for database clusters.

    * You can order local SSD storage (`local-ssd`) only 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.

* Database backup storage exceeding the cluster’s allocated space.

    {% note info %}

    The cluster's storage size is equal to the total storage size of all of its hosts.

    {% endnote %}

    * 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.

    * 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. As a result, the storage used by automatic backups grows only in proportion to the amount of changes.

    * 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 is billed as 2 minutes.

## Discount for committed volume of services (CVoS) {#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**](https://center.yandex.cloud/billing/accounts).
1. Click the billing account.
1. Select ![image](../_assets/console-icons/lock.svg) **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](../billing/concepts/cvos.md).

Managed Service for Sharded PostgreSQL provides two types of CVoS: for vCPUs and for RAM on 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 info %}

A CVoS discount is only available for certain resource types. For unsupported resource types, the relevant CVoS columns under [Prices](#prices) are blank. Storage size and internet traffic cannot currently be reserved via CVoS.

{% endnote %}

## Prices for the Russia region {#prices}

{% note info %}

Yandex Cloud resources are priced differently in different regions. Learn more about available regions in [Regions](../overview/concepts/region.md).

Your payment currency is determined by your contracting legal entity. For more information on creating an account, see [Registering an account in Yandex Cloud](../billing/quickstart/index.md).

{% endnote %}

The monthly prices are based on 720 hours per month.

{% note info %}

Access to the **Intel Ice Lake (Compute Optimized)** platform is available upon request. Contact [support](https://center.yandex.cloud/support) or your account manager.

{% endnote %}

{% note info %}

Access to local SSD storage when using standard **Intel Ice Lake** hosts is provided upon request. Contact [support](https://center.yandex.cloud/support) or your account manager.

{% endnote %}

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](operations/cluster-update.md).
    * 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](../managed-postgresql/operations/cluster-backups.md#list-backups).

### Outgoing traffic {#prices-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.
