Disclosure: I work on Google Cloud.
Your analysis is close, but the on-demand (per second) pricing is also a lot less expensive. You should think of it as:
- Less than a full month w/o commitment => E2 up to ~30% cheaper (particularly for say 273 minutes per month or something).
- Full month w/o commitment => Roughly identical.
- Full month with a 1-year or 3-year commitment => E2 ~30% cheaper.
- amq 7y agoI wish it was simply flat 30% cheaper. It is very misleading that 0.99% of month will be 30% cheaper than a full month, considering that Google Cloud is advertising sustained usage discounts everywhere.
- brianwawok 7y agoSustained usage has tiers. So .99% of a month would only be like 1% cheaper.
