Understand Cost
Understand how Zilliz Cloud calculates charges across compute, storage, data transfer, and additional features to help you monitor usage and manage costs effectively.
Dedicated Cluster [READ MORE]
Dedicated clusters in Zilliz Cloud follows a pay-as-you-go model, where you are mainly charged for the compute resources consumed by your clusters. This ensures you only pay for what you actually use, without the need to over-provision resources in advance.
Serverless Cluster [READ MORE]
Serverless clusters in Zilliz Cloud use a pay-per-operation model, where you are mainly charged for the resources consumed by your read and write operations. This ensures you only pay for the actual workload processed, without the need to provision fixed capacity in advance.
Storage [READ MORE]
In Zilliz Cloud, storage costs are incurred when you store data or backup files, regardless of whether your cluster is running.
Data Transfer [READ MORE]
Data transfer can be traffic coming into Zilliz Cloud, leaving Zilliz Cloud out into the internet, or in between two resources within Zilliz Cloud. Data transfer costs in Zilliz Cloud are billed based on the amount of data transferred.
Audit Log [READ MORE]
When you enable audit logs, Zilliz Cloud deploys a logging service. Collecting, processing, and forwarding these logs consumes additional system resources, which is why corresponding charges apply.
