How about reserved instances? Does GCE offer equivalent of it? To us, reserved instances is giving us significant saving, well, some of eaten by the 10% surcharge from the support plan, unfortunately.
- iforapsy 12y agoGoogle Compute Engine has sustained use discounts: the longer you run an instance, the lower the price per minute that you pay. If you run an instance for a full month, you end up being charged only 70% of that instance's price. Essentially, it's like AWS's reserved instances except you don't have to plan for it ahead of time. https://cloud.google.com/compute/pricing#sustained_use https://cloud.google.com/compute/pricing#sustained_use
