The exact hourly pricing can be calculated by dividing the monthly pricing by the number of hours in the desired month.\n\nCharges are incurred as follows:\n\n- Your project starts incurring charges for the Parallelstore instance at the time you create the instance.\n- You are charged based on the provisioned capacity, not based on the capacity used. For example, if you create a 12,000 GiB instance and store 1000 GiB of data on it, you incur charges for the entire 12,000 GiB.\n- Your project stops incurring charges for the Parallelstore instance at the time you delete the instance, rounded up to the nearest second.\n\nPricing example\n---------------\n\nTo calculate the cost of an instance, choose the desired region and then multiply the provisioned capacity with the unit price per hour.\n\nCalculating the costs for a 20,000 GiB Parallelstore instance in us-central1.\n\nThe unit cost for a Parallelstore instance in the us-central1 is $0.000191781 per GiB per hour. Therefore, the monthly cost for a 20,000 GiB instance is 20,000 GiB \\* $0.000191781 \\* 730 or $2800.00 per month.\n\nData transfer pricing\n---------------------\n\nIf you transfer data in and out of the Parallelstore instances using ImportData/ExportData Parallelstore API, an additional charge is incurred. You are charged based on the bytes transferred and the region where the instance is located.\n\nTo see pricing, select a region from the drop-down list above the following table:\n\n\nIf you pay in a currency other than USD, the prices listed in your currency on [Cloud Platform SKUs](https://cloud.google.com/skus/) apply.\n\n\nHourly pricing varies by month. The exact hourly pricing can be calculated by dividing the monthly pricing by the number of hours in the desired month.\n\nCharges are incurred as follows:\n\n- Your project starts incurring charges per GiB for bytes transferred to and from Parallelstore when data is moved by ImportData and ExportData operations.\n- The charges are incurred while the transfer operation is taking place.\n\n#### Request a custom quote\n\nWith Google Cloud's pay-as-you-go pricing, you only pay for the services you use.
