Zorluk: OrtaEstimating GCP Costs with the Pricing Calculator

A logistics platform models monthly infrastructure costs in the Google Cloud Pricing Calculator for a fleet tracking service. The workload requires 5 N1 compute instances running continuously for 730 hours per month at a baseline rate of 0.20perhourperinstance.GoogleCloudautomaticallyappliesa300.20 per hour per instance. Google Cloud automatically applies a 30% Sustained Use Discount (SUD) to N1 instance compute charges for 100% monthly utilization. In addition, each instance is attached to 200 GB of Standard Persistent Disk storage priced at 0.05 per GB per month. Note that Persistent Disk pricing is not eligible for Sustained Use Discounts. What is the total estimated monthly cost, in dollars, for this workload?

Cevap: 561 USD

Cevap

The total estimated monthly cost for the workload is $561.00.
The correct calculation computes the baseline compute cost (730.00),appliesthe30730.00), applies the 30% Sustained Use Discount to arrive at 511.00, and adds the un-discounted Persistent Disk cost of 50.00toyieldatotalmonthlycostof50.00 to yield a total monthly cost of 561.00.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the gross compute cost for all instances.
$730.00
5 instances running for 730 hours each at 0.20/hourequals57300.20/hour equals 5 * 730 * 0.20 = $730.00.
2
Apply the Sustained Use Discount (SUD) to compute charges.
$511.00
Continuous monthly usage on N1 instances qualifies for a 30% discount on compute charges (730.000.70=730.00 * 0.70 = 511.00).
3
Calculate the total Persistent Disk storage cost.
$50.00
5 instances with 200 GB each equals 1,000 GB total at $0.05/GB/month. Persistent Disk is not eligible for SUD.
4
Sum the net compute cost and persistent storage cost.
$561.00
511.00(netcompute)+511.00 (net compute) + 50.00 (storage) = $561.00.

Anahtar Kavram

Sustained Use Discounts apply automatically to eligible Compute Engine VM instance hours but do not apply to attached Persistent Disk storage.
