[–] dfbrown 12y ago ↗ If my math is right, that makes it $6.77 per month for a full time f1-micro instance. That's comparable to DigitalOcean's prices.( 0.013 dollars/hour * 24 hours/day * 31 days/month ) * 0.70 discount = 6.77 [–] johne20 12y ago ↗ Does the f1-micro use SSD drive? [–] khass 12y ago ↗ It´s even cheaper if you run the vm non-stop. They are offering sustained use discounts. [–] agwa 12y ago ↗ dfbrown factored that into the calculation (by multiplying by 0.7) [–] agwa 12y ago ↗ Your math is correct, but you have to remember that Google compute instances don't include disk storage or network transfer - you have to pay for those separately, which drives the cost up higher.
