- tdumitrescu 10y ago$10 + the very non-trivial cost of administering it yourself.
- a012 10y agoFor micro scale self-managed Postgres, what's difference? Keep in mind that GCP doesn't support HA (ye)t and has not guaranteed anything.
- marcell 10y ago5 GB is included storage, additional is available for $0.24 per GB per month. Still, this doesn't seem competitive with AWS. The same money buys you substantially more RAM: https://aws.amazon.com/rds/pricing/ https://aws.amazon.com/rds/pricing/ Edit: sibling comment points out the actual pricing for google is lower.
- bbatsell 10y agoThat is pricing for 1st Generation, which is a whole different product that does not support Postgres. The pricing for Postgres is here: https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/pricing#pg-pricing https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/postgres/pricing#pg-pricin... (1*0.0413+2*0.0070)*730 + 5*0.17 = $41.22/month 1 vCPU 2GB RAM 5GB SSD
- tomaskafka 10y agoThanks for the computation - looks a bit more sane, but still - seems pretty expensive compared to a cheap VPS for the one-man-show scale, and quite expensive for 'we need 100s of those' compared with standalone server.
