Last updated: 2026-07-19 Region basis: us-central1 (GCP list prices vary by region — note the region when the inventory is elsewhere) cloud.google.com/sql/pricing, cloud.google.com/memorystore/docs/redis/pricing, cloud.google.com/compute/vm-instance-pricing, cloud.google.com/kubernetes-engine/pricing USD · ±15% per rate; a baseline derived from these rates carries the Part 1 rung-2 label (±20–30%)
Use this cache to derive the current GCP monthly baseline from discovered resource sizing when no billing export exists (estimate-infra.md Part 1 rung 2). These are SOURCE-side (GCP) rates — never use them to price AWS services. Hours/month: 730.
| Component | Rate |
|---|---|
| vCPU | $0.0413 /vCPU/hour |
| RAM | $0.0070 /GB/hour |
SSD storage (PD_SSD, the default — assume it when dataDiskType is absent) | $0.170 /GB/month |
HDD storage (PD_HDD) | $0.090 /GB/month |
| Backup storage | $0.080 /GB/month — backup volume is not in the capture; when backups are enabled, use provisioned disk GB as an upper bound, labeled “(backup upper bound)” |
Tier decoding:
db-custom-C-M → C vCPUs, M MB of RAM (e.g. db-custom-2-8192 = 2 vCPU + 8 GB)db-f1-micro ≈ $0.0105/hr, db-g1-small ≈ $0.0350/hravailabilityType: REGIONAL (HA) → 2× the vCPU + RAM + storage subtotal
(GCP bills the standby); ZONAL → 1×Monthly = (C × 0.0413 + (M/1024) × 0.0070) × 730 × HA-multiplier + disk_GB × storage rate × HA-multiplier. The backup upper-bound line is NOT multiplied by the HA multiplier (backups are taken once, not per replica).
| Capacity (GB) | Basic | Standard (HA) |
|---|---|---|
| 1–4 (M1) | $0.049 | $0.077 |
| 5–10 (M2) | $0.039 | $0.062 |
| 11–35 (M3) | $0.031 | $0.050 |
| 36–100 (M4) | $0.024 | $0.039 |
| >100 (M5) | $0.021 | $0.034 |
Monthly = memorySizeGb × band rate (by tier) × 730.

NOT derivable from sizing; exclude (see below)Usage-based services have no meaningful list-price-from-sizing derivation.
Exclude them from the rung-2 baseline total, name each in warnings[], and
state that a billing export (rung 1) is the upgrade input:
Staleness: if today is more than 30 days after Last updated above, treat these rates as potentially stale and note it in the estimate output (same convention as
pricing-cache.md); GCP list prices change rarely, but verify via cloud.google.com/products/calculator when precision matters.
