Pricing at a glance

◇ Pricing model

Usage-based on-demand pricing for Helios Cloud, with compute billed in credits per hour, storage billed separately per average GB per month, and some services billed by usage; self-managed and BYOC/enterprise pricing are partially quote-only.

↻ Billing notes

SingleStore’s public cloud pricing is primarily usage-based. Compute is billed in credits per hour, storage is billed monthly and separately, and billing is described as monthly based on actual usage. The pricing page shows a free shared tier, Managed Standard starting at $0.99/hr, and Managed Enterprise starting at $1.49/hr. The pricing page also says to contact sales for pricing in BYOC Standard and notes that prices are estimates, with volume-based discounts available on request. The cloud pricing page adds that some pricing, including Flow and container services, is preview pricing subject to change before GA, and that region, edition, deployment configuration, and availability zones all affect credit consumption.

  • Storage billed separately from compute charges

Rates vary by storage tier and CSP-billed average GB stored; public pricing lists Tier 1 at $0.023, Tier 2 at $0.025, Tier 3 at $0.026, Tier 4 at $0.040 per average GB per month.

Flow

Hourly
0.123 to 18.731 credits per hour
  • Data movement from a source database to a destination SingleStore workspace

Preview pricing subject to change before general availability. Public pricing lists Flow deployment sizes f-1 through f-8 with hourly credit consumption from 0.123 to 18.731.

Add-ons and extras

Compute credits

$3.96 per credit

Compute credits are consumed by deployments while they are running, and the billing page says on-demand usage is billed at the list price of $3.96 per credit. Credits are affected by deployment size, region, edition, and configuration.

Storage overages / additional storage usage

$0.023 to $0.040 per average GB per month

Storage is billed monthly and separately from compute. The public pricing page does not label this as an add-on, but it functions as usage-based storage billing that increases with stored data volume.

Data transfer via Flow

$0.02 per GB processed

Data transferred using SingleStore Flow incurs a usage charge per GB processed. The pricing page marks Flow as preview pricing subject to change prior to GA.

Smart Disaster Recovery egress

$20 to $150 per TB

Smart Disaster Recovery data transfer is billed per TB egress within the same cloud service provider, with the rate determined by source region tier.

Hidden and indirect costs

Worth budgeting for
⚠  Public pricing notes that estimates may differ from actual usage and that customers should contact SingleStore for more accurate pricing and volume-based discounts. That means list prices can understate what a large deployment pays after region choice, edition choice, scaling, and storage growth are included. The cloud pricing page also calls out separate charges for compute, storage, and data transfer, so buyers should expect the final bill to move with workload shape rather than only workspace size.
⚠  The pricing pages do not publicly disclose every variable that can affect cost, including dedicated-region pricing, BYOC-region pricing, and some commitment or discount arrangements. Several features are preview-priced or marked subject to change prior to general availability, which creates additional pricing uncertainty for buyers planning around those capabilities. In practice, a customer should assume that usage spikes, region multipliers, and add-on workflows can change monthly spend materially.

Pricing FAQ

Yes. The public pricing page lists a Managed Shared tier for evaluation, development and non-production testing, and it shows the price as Free. The same page says the tier includes a shared workspace, monitoring and self-support. The page also highlights a free shared tier in the cloud pricing details.

SingleStore Cloud is billed primarily on usage rather than a flat subscription. The cloud pricing page says compute is metered in credits per hour, storage is billed monthly and separately, and billing is done at the end of each month based on actual usage. The public pricing page also notes that the prices shown are estimates and that volume-based discounts may be available.

Yes. The cloud pricing page says region tiers affect credit consumption, with Tier 1 through Tier 4 regions using different multipliers. It also says deployment configuration and availability zone choice change credit consumption, and that different editions consume credits at different rates. Buyers should therefore treat list prices as starting points rather than final invoices.

No. The public pricing page lists BYOC Standard as Contact us for pricing. It does not provide a public dollar amount or billing cadence for that tier. Buyers need to speak with sales to get a quote.
