## What goes into the cost of using Monitoring {#rules}

Currently, you are charged for writing custom metrics via the [Monitoring API](api-ref/index.md) and writing any metrics via the [Prometheus Remote API](operations/prometheus/index.md), as well as reading any metrics via the [Monitoring API](api-ref/index.md).

You do not pay for writing metric values of Yandex Cloud resources and reading metrics via the Remote API.

Pricing features:
* After writing or reading the first 50,000,000 metric values via the Monitoring API, the writing fee is reduced. See  for details.
* There is no charge for writing Yandex Cloud resource metrics collected automatically.
* There is no charge for reading metrics via the Monitoring interface and Yandex Cloud console.
* There is no charge for Monitoring incoming and outgoing traffic.

### Cost calculation example {#example}






**Example 1**

Cost of using Monitoring for 30 days if writing 20 metrics at **1 value per minute** via the Monitoring API:

> 20 × 1 × (60 × 24 × 30) = 864,000 values = 0.864M values
> 0.864 × $0.0026229504 = $0.0022662291 = $0
> 
> Total: $0

Where:

* 20: Number of metrics.
* 1: Number of values written per minute.
* (60 × 24 × 30): Number of minutes in 30 days.
* $0.0026229504: Cost of writing 1,000,000 values (up to 50,000,000).

**Example 2**

Cost of exporting 100 metrics from Monitoring to your own Prometheus monitoring system installation with a polling interval of **15 seconds** for 30 days via the Monitoring API:

> 100 × (60 / 15) × (60 × 24 × 30) = 17,280,000 values = 17.28M values
> 17.28 × $0.0629999899 = $1.09
>
> Total: $1.09

Where:

* 100: Number of metrics.
* (60 / 15): Number of values read per minute.
* (60 × 24 × 30): Number of minutes in 30 days.
* $0.0629999899: Cost of reading 1,000,000 values (up to 50,000,000).



## 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 minimum billing unit is one metric value. The cost is rounded to the nearest ₽0.01, ₸0.01, or $0.01.




For example, writing the first 100,000 values will cost `(100,000 values / 1,000,000) × $0.0026229504 = $0.000262295` rounded to `$0`. Whereas writing 150,000 values will cost `(150,000 values / 1,000,000) × $0.0026229504 = $0.0003934426` rounded to `$0`. Where `$0.0026229504` is the price per 1,000,000 values (if writing up to 50,000,000 values).
