Compute-optimized VM pricing

Compute-optimized pricing

This page lists all the pricing for Compute-optimized machine type family in a single place for convenience. It is intended for reference purposes. You can find more detail on pricing in the How pricing works section.

Note: This page does not provide detailed pricing explanations.

Compute Engine charges for usage based on the following price sheet. A bill is sent out at the end of each billing cycle, providing a sum of Google Cloud charges. Prices on this page are listed in U.S. dollars (USD).

For Compute Engine, disk size, machine type memory, and network usage are calculated in JEDEC binary gigabytes (GB) also known as gibibytes (GiB), where 1 GiB is 2³⁰ bytes. Similarly, 1 TiB is 2⁴⁰ bytes, or 1024 JEDEC GBs.

If you pay in a currency other than USD, the prices listed in your currency on Cloud Platform SKUs apply.

Spot prices are dynamic and can change up to once every 30 days, but provide discounts of 60-91% off of the corresponding on-demand price for most machine types and GPUs. Spot prices also provide smaller discounts for local SSDs and A3 machine types. For more information, see the Spot VMs documentation.

Simulated maintenance event pricing

Starting February 10, 2020, there is no cost to running simulated maintenance events.

Note: Normal 1-minute-minimum usage charges for machine types and premium images still apply to instances that you stop or Spot VMs (or preemptible VMs) during a simulated maintenance event. See the machine type billing model and premium image pricing for details.

Prior to this date, the following charges apply:

Simulated maintenance on instances configured for live migration incur costs for each of the following instance resources:
Price per vCPU on the instance, where f1-micro and g1-small are each equivalent to 1 vCPU: $0.040
Price per GB of memory: $0.010
Price per GB of Local SSD space: $0.001
Simulated maintenance on Spot VMs (and preemptible VMs): Free
Simulated maintenance on instances configured to stop and restart: Free

Suspended VM instances

When you suspend an instance, Compute Engine preserves the memory and device state. While you are not charged for the VM instance as if it were running, suspended instances still incur charges for the following:

Suspended instance memory and device state.
Suspended Local SSD data & metadata.
Any Persistent Disk usage.
Any static IPs attached to the VM instance.

Note: Suspended Instance and Local SSD state are stored in Persistent Disk volumes and as such are subject to Persistent Disk pricing. All preserved state charges in this section are prorated based on a granularity of seconds. For example, if you suspended 1 GB of space for half the month, then you are charged for only half of the month.

With this price update, RHEL and RHEL for SAP subscriptions costs will scale linearly with machine size. Instances with 12 vCPUs or less are expected to see equivalent or reduced costs; instances with more than 12 vCPUs are expected to see increased costs. Please use the tables below to estimate how this change will impact your RHEL and RHEL for SAP costs.

Red Hat Enterprise Linux

Instance vCPU count	Price per core
1, 2, 4 or 8	$0.0144 / 1 hour
12, 16, 32 or 64	$0.0108 / 1 hour
128, 256 or 512	$0.0096 / 1 hour

Red Hat Enterprise Linux for SAP

Instance vCPU count	Price per core
1, 2, 4 or 8	$0.0225 / 1 hour
12, 16, 32 or 64	$0.01625 / 1 hour
128, 256 or 512	$0.015 / 1 hour

Prices in this table are estimates only to the RHEL pricing update impact.

All RHEL and RHEL for SAP images are charged a 1 minute minimum. After 1 minute, RHEL images are charged in 1 second increments.

If you have concerns over RHEL and RHEL for SAP software costs, contact your Google Cloud account representative.

SLES and SLES for SAP images

SLES images:

$0.02 USD/hour for f1-micro and g1-small machine types
$0.11 USD/hour for all other machine types

SLES for SAP images:

$0.17 USD/hour for instances with 1 - 2 vCPUs
$0.34 USD/hour for instances with 3 - 4 vCPUs
$0.41 USD/hour for instances with 5 or more vCPUs

All SLES images are charged a 1 minute minimum. After 1 minute, SLES images are charged in 1 second increments.

You can purchase commitments and receive committed use discounts (CUDs) for your SUSE Linux Enterprise Server (SLES) and SLES for SAP licenses. Because you commit to a minimum level of resource usage when you purchase your license commitment, you have to pay the agreed-upon prices for the duration of that commitment, even if your resource usage is lower than that minimum level. As a result, to maximize the benefit of your CUDs, ensure that you use all of your committed licenses and run VMs with those licenses for 100% time of your commitment's term. To learn more about CUDs for licenses and how to purchase a commitment, see Purchase commitments for licenses.

Ubuntu pro images

The following sections outline the license cost for using Ubuntu Pro images on Compute Engine

Memory

License cost for memory is charged at one flat rate of $0.000127 per GB/hour in USD.

vCPU

License cost for vCPU varies by the number of vCPUs that the Ubuntu Pro VM has. The following table summarizes the license cost per hour in USD.

Number of vCPUs	License cost (USD)/hour
1	$0.00166 / 1 hour
2	$0.002971 / 1 hour
4	$0.005545 / 1 hour
6-8	$0.00997 / 1 hour
10-16	$0.018063 / 1 hour
18-48	$0.033378 / 1 hour
50-78	$0.060548 / 1 hour
80-96	$0.077871 / 1 hour
98-222	$0.102401 / 1 hour
>222	$0.122063 / 1 hour

Example

For example, if your Ubuntu Pro VM has 64 GB RAM and 16 vCPUs, the license cost is calculated as follows:

Hourly license cost per VM = (0.000127 * 64) + (0.018063) = $0.026191

Monthly license cost (31 day month) per VM = 0.026191 * 744 = $19.486104

Ubuntu pro GPU license

When running VMs that use the Ubuntu Pro images with attached GPUs, you incur license cost for the premium image and a GPU license in addition to the regular cost of running the VM and the cost of the attached GPU.

The following table summarizes the per GPU license rates per month in USD for Ubuntu Pro VMs. The license fee varies based on the number of GPUs attached to the VM but is the same for all GPU models that are available on Compute Engine.

Number of GPUs	License cost (USD)
1	$0.035 / 1 hour
2	$0.066 / 1 hour
4	$0.12 / 1 hour
8	$0.208 / 1 hour
>8	$0.30 / 1 hour

Windows Server images

If you use a Compute Engine Windows Server image or you import a Windows Server image without bringing your own licenses, you are billed based on the machine types you use as follows:

f1-micro and g1-small machine types: $0.023 USD/hour.
All other machine types: $0.046 USD/hour per visible vCPU. For example, n2-highcpu-4, and n2-highmem-4 have 4 vCPUs, so are charged at $0.184 USD/hour (4 x $0.046 USD/hour).

Windows Server images are charged a 1 minute minimum. After 1 minute, Windows images are charged in 1 second increments.

For information about licensing for Windows Server images, see Microsoft licenses.

SQL Server images

SQL Server images incur costs in addition to the cost for Windows Server images and the cost for the selected machine type.

$0.399 USD per core/hour for SQL Server Enterprise
$0.1200 USD per core/hour for SQL Server Standard
$0.011 USD per core/hour for SQL Server Web
No additional charge for SQL Server Express

Microsoft SQL Server licensing requires a core license to be assigned to each virtual CPU on your virtual machine instance, with a four core minimum for each instance. Instances with fewer than 4 vCPUs will be charged for 4 vCPUs to comply with these requirements.

Google recommends that you not use SQL Server images on f1-micro or g1-small machine types based on Microsoft's minimum hardware and software recommendations.

SQL Server images are charged a 1 minute minimum. After 1 minute, SQL Server images are charged in 1 second increments.

For information about licensing for SQL Server OS images, see Microsoft licenses.
