Zorluk: ZorEstimating GCP Costs with the Pricing Calculator

A cloud architect is using the Google Cloud Pricing Calculator to model the monthly expense of a data transformation pipeline running in us-central1 for a 30-day month (730 hours). The architecture specifies the following components:
- 5 `n2-standard-4` VM instances operating 24/7 at an un-discounted rate of 0.16perinstancehour.A3yearCommittedUseDiscount(CUD)of552TB(2,000GB)ofStandardPersistentDiskstorageat0.16 per instance-hour. A 3-year Committed Use Discount (CUD) of 55% is applied to all compute instances. - 2 TB (2,000 GB) of Standard Persistent Disk storage at 0.04 per GB per month.
- 500 GB of network egress from us-central1 to another North American region at $0.12 per GB per month.

Assuming no additional fees or taxes, what is the estimated total monthly cost in USD for this workload?

Cevap: 402.8 USD

Cevap

The estimated total monthly cost for this architecture is $402.80 USD.
To accurately estimate GCP costs with the Pricing Calculator, compute instance hours are first calculated (5 instances×730 hours=3,650 instance-hours5 \text{ instances} \times 730 \text{ hours} = 3,650 \text{ instance-hours}) and multiplied by the base hourly rate to reach $584.00\$584.00. Applying the 55% Committed Use Discount results in $262.80\$262.80 ($584.00×0.45\$584.00 \times 0.45). Standard Persistent Disk storage (2,000 GB×$0.04=$80.002,000 \text{ GB} \times \$0.04 = \$80.00) and network egress (500 GB×$0.12=$60.00500 \text{ GB} \times \$0.12 = \$60.00) are added without CUD discounts, yielding a total monthly cost of $402.80\$402.80 USD.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate un-discounted Compute Engine instance costs
$584.00
5 instances running for 730 hours equals 3,650 total instance-hours at $0.16 per hour.
2
Apply the 3-year Committed Use Discount to the compute total
$262.80
A 55% CUD means paying 45% of the baseline compute rate ($584.00 * 0.45).
3
Calculate monthly Persistent Disk storage costs
$80.00
2 TB equals 2,000 GB, charged at $0.04 per GB per month.
4
Calculate inter-region network egress costs
$60.00
500 GB egress charged at $0.12 per GB.
5
Sum all component costs for the total monthly estimate
$402.80
Combining discounted compute (262.80),storage(262.80), storage ( 80.00), and egress (60.00)yields60.00) yields 402.80.
