LambdaDB offers a Free plan and a Standard plan. There is no minimum cost or base fee. If you have no usage, your cost is $0. On the Standard plan, usage is metered in three dimensions: read usage, write usage, and storage usage. Charges are based on actual measured usage at the rates below. For the latest pricing details, see Pricing.

​
Plans

LambdaDB offers two plans:
  • Free: includes up to 1 PB read usage, 2 GB write usage, and 2 GB storage usage per month at no cost. After a Free plan limit is reached, additional usage is restricted.
  • Standard: usage is billed based on actual measured read usage, write usage, and storage usage as described below.

​
Read usage

Read usage is billed at $5 per read PB (petabyte) of measured usage. The following requests contribute to read usage based on collection size: For these operations, the size of the collection is reflected in read usage. Per-request minimum: each request is counted as at least 1 GB of read usage. Strong consistency: for query and fetch requests, if you set consistentRead to true, an additional 1 GB is added to read usage for that request (on top of the per-request minimum and the collection-size basis). See also Search overview and Fetch data.

​
Write usage

Write usage is billed at $1 per write GB of measured usage. Upsert, update, and bulk-upsert (document upsert, document update, document bulk upsert) are measured from the size in bytes of the document payload you send in the request body. Update (document update) only: each request always runs an internal document fetch with strong consistency (equivalent to fetch with consistentRead set to true). That work is billed as read usage under Read usage—including collection-size basis, the per-request minimum, and the Strong consistency rule. Per-request minimum for upsert, update, and bulk-upsert: 50 KB. Delete (document delete): 100 KB of write usage is added per delete request (fixed amount).

​
Storage usage

Storage is billed on physical storage at $0.33 per GB-month. If you use branching, logical storage and physical storage can differ; billing follows physical storage. Usage is computed from hourly averages of stored data. Those averages are summed into GB-hours over the billing period (not a single end-of-month snapshot).

​
Billing cycle

On the first day of each calendar month, usage for the previous month—read, write, and storage—is aggregated and invoiced for the Standard plan.
