Billing Examples

Suppose you purchased a one-month GeminiDB Mongo instance (instance specifications: 4 vCPUs | 16 GB; nodes: 3; storage: 100 GB; backup space: 110 GB (100 GB for free)) on March 08, 2023, 15:50:04, and renewed the subscription for one more month before the initial subscription expired. That would include two usage periods:

  • March 08, 2023, 15:50:04 to April 08, 2023, 23:59:59
  • April 08, 2023, 23:59:59 to May 08, 2023, 23:59:59
    • From April 08, 2023, 23:59:59 to May 01, 2023, 23:59:59, 50 GB of free backup space was used.
    • From May 01, 2023, 23:59:59 to May 08, 2023, 23:59:59, another 10 GB of backup space was used, which was billed for 168 hours.
