Question

zap Got team subscription enabled so I m officially the first adopter at the company I m at tada Right now I m at free tier on a K8 deployment being roughly 8k Pulumi credits I m trying to plan for future stuff and super confused on the credit stuff or at least wondering if I m right wrong Let s say I m at 150k credits I do a new k8 deployment and 8k more credits are used 0 00025 per pulumi credit would mean $2 a month but then I see the credits are calculated per hour or something So Each month with that said I m thinking $1300 which I can t believe is right I want to keep adopting for little things here and there while I promote internally but having a solid understanding of potential cost is really important If I all of a sudden hit $1300 for a new plan on the credit card some folks might have some serious questions slightly smiling face Any calculator or examples would be welcome to better plan for using

Credits are directly related to the number of resources hours

prehistoric-activity-61023 · Answer

AFAIR one resource e g S3 bucket managed by pulumi existing within a stack for an hour costs you 1 credit

prehistoric-activity-61023 · Answer

that s why for 150k credits you can have ```150 000 credits 30 days 24 hours within a day ~ 208 resources```

prehistoric-activity-61023 · Answer

If you re total sum of resources across all stacks is lt 208 and they don t change over time or at least that s the average you re gonna use all 150k free credits

gt I do a new k8 deployment and 8k more credits are used That part confused me and that s why I gave you such a long answer You re missing the time factor here deployment can cost you 8k credits over some time Assuming you meant the whole month 720h that k8s deployment must have on average ~11 resources declared

prehistoric-activity-61023 · Answer

In other words if you re gonna create 11 resources and destroy them after 1h gt 11 credits

Very helpful The resource chart shows 20

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

The Quantity of credits used from the last bill free tier trial 8 984

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

I m doing continual deployment so my stack gets replaced multiple times a day or at least some of the resources do

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

I also have Azure Keyvault vars and other azure devops stuff I want to migrate from Terraform to pulumi because of the great inbuilt stack encryption offered

chilly-plastic-75584 · Answer

So can you give me an idea of what this would look like say I maxed my account at 150k Now next month I do a new deployment of 11 resources for kubernetes Would this be ` 0 00025 720 11` to results in `$2` for the new stack then I m multitasking so if I m mixing things up please forgive slightly smiling face

< prehistoric activity 61023> do you think I could get a follow up on my team account via email if slack doesn t work I need to figure this out as we adopt it more and I m confused a little Let s say I create a new stack and leave it running all month maybe replace stuff but same count Is that ` 0 00025 720 11` and $1 98 a month or am I getting this calc wrong Been swamped so sorry if the question is repetitive I can jump on a call next week to chat if it s easier

prehistoric-activity-61023 · Answer

Sorry I haven t seen your last message Yeah the last calc seems ok to me The cost of running 11 resources stack for a full month is indeed `0 00025 720 11 ~ $1 98` Keep in mind that Team plan has 150k free credits every month If something is still unclear feel free to message me next week
