Hi,
The cost we published includes the time to setup the whole cluster, warm up the data nodes, and run for 5 minutes at 1M per second.
Our run rate is $281 per hour, which is the same as AWS a couple of years back. What changed is that we are using quorum commit, the data is encrypted at rest, we have very low tail latency, and we look at all samples when computing that.
Computing our price is easier because we do not charge per access.
Here is the formula for our run rate:
30 loaders (n1-highcpu-8) at $0.522 per hour: 248.7
300 nodes (n1-standard-8) at $0.829 per hour: 15.66
300 1TB PDs that run at 0.055555556/hour: 16.67
Total: 281.03
But keep an eye on us. This is for today prices.
