Pricing Details

• After you purchase an instance, DDS will provide additional backup storage of the same size as you purchased. For example, if you purchase 100 GB of instance storage space, you will obtain 100 GB of backup storage space. If the size of backup data does not exceed 100 GB, the backup data is stored on OBS free of charge. If the size of the backup data exceeds 100 GB, you will be charged based on the OBS billing rules.
• You can check your expenditure records for DDS backup fees by going to Billing Center > Bills.

Precautions

• The backup process does not affect services.

• When you delete a DB instance, its automated backups are also deleted but its manual backups are retained.
