Pricing for Virtual Private Cloud

What goes into the cost of using VPC

In VPC, you pay for the hourly use of public IP addresses.

Pricing

Public IP addresses

A public IP address can be in one of the following two states:

1. Active: When a dynamic or static public IP address is linked to a running cloud resource.

2. Inactive: When a static public IP address isn't linked to a cloud resource or is linked to a stopped resource. The price of an inactive public static address is calculated by adding the price of a public IP address to the price for reserving an inactive public static IP address:

   $0.001953 + $0.002538 = $0.004491 per hour, without VAT

DDoS protection

Filtered traffic is incoming traffic that the DDoS Protection filtering system passes to the user's cloud resources. Only filtered traffic is charged.

For example, a user's VM was subject to a typical 10 Gbit/s DDoS attack generating 75 GB of incoming traffic. During the attack, the user downloaded 2 GB of filtered files from the internet to the VM. When the attack ended, the user downloaded another 2 GB of filtered files.

In this case, only 4 GB of filtered traffic are billed: 2 GB that DDoS Protection passed to cloud resources during the attack, and 2 GB downloaded after the attack. Malicious traffic is filtered out and not billed.

Cloud Interconnect

The service is provided when technically possible. Yandex Cloud Interconnect prices are provided upon request and are subject to the technical characteristics of the connection to Yandex.Cloud.

Using security groups

The security group functionality is at the Preview stage and can be used free of charge.

Outgoing traffic

Outgoing traffic from Yandex.Cloud resources is charged within the relevant services. The cost of outgoing traffic is the same for all services.

The minimum billable unit is 1 MB.
