Pricing¶

This topic introduces the pricing model for NebulaGraph Cloud.

Overview¶

NebulaGraph Cloud offers pay-as-you-go pricing for all of its services. You pay only for the resources you use, with no upfront costs or long-term contracts. However, you do need to subscribe to NebulaGraph Cloud on the AWS Marketplace to use the service.

After creating a database instance on NebulaGraph Cloud, you are charged based on three factors: database node specification, disk storage specification and data transfer usage.

Node specification¶

The charges for node specification differ depending on the plan you choose.

For standard plan¶

For standard plan users, the node specifications are determined by the number of vCPUs and the amount of RAM. The following table lists the available node specifications and their corresponding hourly prices:

Node specification	Price/hour
2 vCPUs, 4 GB RAM	$0.049
2 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM	$0.91
4 vCPUs, 16 GB RAM	$1.83
8 vCPUs, 32 GB RAM	$3.66
8 vCPUs, 64 GB RAM	$3.76

For professional plan¶

For professional plan users, node specifications are divided into storage node specifications and query node specifications. The following table lists the available node specifications and their corresponding hourly prices:

Storage node specification

Storage node specification	Price/hour
2 vCPUs, 16 GB RAM	$0.79
4 vCPUs, 32 GB RAM	$1.59
8 vCPUs, 64 GB RAM	$3.17

Disk storage specification¶

The following table lists disk storage specifications and their corresponding hourly prices for both standard and professional plan users:

Storage size per node	Price/GB/hour
From 30 GB to 160 GB	$0.0001
From 161 GB to 320 GB	$0.0002

The charges for the disk storage follow AWS pricing. For more information about AWS EBS pricing, see the AWS documentation.

Data transfer usage¶

For both standard and professional plan users, the charges for data transfer follow AWS pricing and consist of the following:

Fixed cost: the hourly charge of an AWS Network Load Balancer (NLB), which is $0.0225.
Capacity unit cost: the number of Network Load Balancer Capacity Units (NLCU) used by the NLB per hour, which is $0.006 per NLCU-hour.

For more information about AWS NLB pricing, see the AWS documentation.
