Billing for TIR DBaaS

A TIR DBaaS database has two prices: the compute plan, priced per hour, and the disk, priced per GB per month. Both are shown in your account’s currency on the create page. For the rates, see E2E’s pricing page.

The plan and the disk

Each plan has a price per hour. You can choose only from the plans priced in your account’s currency. The plan stays the same for the life of the database.

The disk is priced separately from the plan, per month: the size in GB times the price per GB per month. After you increase the storage, Price on Overview covers the new size. You can increase the storage, and each increase is permanent. See Edit a database.

The estimate before you launch

Estimated cost, next to Launch Database, adds the two together as a price per hour: the plan’s hourly price plus the disk’s monthly price spread over 730 hours, with about how much that comes to per month.

Once the database exists, Price under Plan & Usage on the Overview tab gives an approximate hourly price for the plan and the storage together.

Credit for a prepaid account

On a prepaid account, TIR checks your credit before it creates the database. TIR creates the database only when your credit covers it; otherwise the portal tells you how many more credits to buy. To add credit, see Pay now in TIR.

Restored databases

Restoring a snapshot creates a new database with the source’s plan and storage size. A restored database is a separate database with its own price. See Restore a database from a snapshot.
