Description

Billing Mode

Storage space

Disk backup vault

If cloud disks need to be backed up, buy disk backup vaults to store the backups.

Pay-per-use

Yearly/Monthly

Server backup vault

If cloud servers (without applications) need to be backed up, buy server backup vaults to store the backups.

Pay-per-use

Yearly/Monthly

SFS Turbo backup vault

If SFS Turbo file systems need to be backed up, buy SFS Turbo backup vaults to store the backups.

Pay-per-use

Yearly/Monthly

Database server backup vault

If cloud servers (with applications) need to be backed up, buy database server backup vaults to store the backups.

You need to enable Application-Consistent Backup on the Buy Server Backup Vault page before using database server backup vaults. For more information, see Application-Consistent Backup Overview.

Pay-per-use

Yearly/Monthly

Hybrid cloud backup vault

If backups of on-premises VMware VMs need to be stored, buy hybrid cloud backup vaults.

Pay-per-use

Yearly/Monthly

Replication vault

If you need to replicate backups to another region, buy replication vaults in the destination region.

Pay-per-use

Yearly/Monthly

Data traffic

Outbound traffic over the Internet

If hybrid cloud backups on the cloud are used to restore data to on-premises IDCs, outbound traffic is charged.

Free for a limited time

Cross-region replication traffic

If backups or vaults are replicated to another region, traffic for cross-region replication is charged for the source region.

Pay-per-use

Billing Examples

Example 1

Purchase a pay-per-use vault for cloud servers without databases deployed:

If a user purchases a 400-GB server backup vault for their 100-GB cloud server in the LA-Mexico City1 region, the user is billed for the 400-GB server backup vault in CBR.

Example 2

Purchase a pay-per-use vault for cloud servers with databases deployed:

If a user purchases an 800-GB database server backup vault for their 100-GB database server in the LA-Mexico City1 region, the user is billed for the 800-GB database server backup vault in CBR.

Example 3

Replicate a backup to another region:

A user purchases a 100 GB server backup vault A in the LA-Mexico City1 region, and the backup data uses 40 GB of the storage space. This user also purchases a 200 GB replication vault B in the AP-Bangkok region and replicates data from vault A to vault B, without using the acceleration service. In this case, the user is billed for the 100 GB backup vault and the 200 GB replication vault, as well as the 40 GB cross-region replication data traffic.
