Multiple factors contribute to these savings, but two stand out as the most pivotal: <strong>Pricing Strategy and Engineering Design.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pricing Strategy: Pay Only for Consumption<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, TiDB Serverless&#8217;s billing contrasts with competitors like Amazon RDS for MySQL. Instead of fixed pricing or fees for reserved instances, on-demand use, and additional charges for I\/O operations and backups, TiDB Serverless adopts a usage-based model. Users pay for the compute and storage they consume, benefit from free quotas, and can control costs through spending limits and throttling to avoid overages.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th><strong>Amazon RDS for MySQL &#8211; Upfront Model<\/strong><\/th><th><strong>TiDB Serverless &#8211; Usage-based Model<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td><ul><li><strong>Reserved Instances (RI)<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>On-Demand Pricing<\/strong>(Hourly rates for instance)<\/li><li><strong>Storage Charges<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>I\/O Costs<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Data Transfer Costs<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>IOPS Monthly Charges<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Backup &amp; Restore Costs<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><\/td><td><ul><li><strong>Request Units (RUs)<\/strong>: Units used to measure the resources needed for database requests.<\/li><li><strong>Storage Charges<\/strong><\/li><\/ul><br><em>It even offers many ways to help users save:<\/em><br><div><ul><li><strong>Free Quota<\/strong>: 5 Clusters x 5 GiB<\/li><li><strong>Cost-Control:<\/strong><ul><li><strong>Spending Limit<\/strong>: Set budget to cap spending.<\/li><li><strong>Throttling<\/strong>: Pauses new connections when spending reaches the set limit.<\/li><\/ul><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Engineering Design: Build-in Efficiency<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>TiDB Serverless allows it to share resources more extensively than conventional serverless architectures. Typical serverless architectures are designed to share compute, storage, and network resources across different customers, but TiDB Serverless takes this a step further.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;ll delve into it later in our blog.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But one thing for today, this design means <strong>we have inherently built efficiency into TiDB Serverless.<\/strong> First of all, the architecture is conducive to straightforward pricing strategy mentioned above. Furthermore, it facilitates a leading-edge capability in the serverless database market: <strong>scale-to-zero<\/strong><strong>.<\/strong> This translates directly to cost savings\u2014during lull periods in your application when data traffic is nonexistent, you incur absolutely no costs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Such engineering feats enable TiDB Serverless to not only deliver cutting-edge database services but also to pass on the cost advantages to customers through a transparent, flexible, and fair pricing model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><em><strong><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">In essence, with TiDB Serverless, when your app rests, so does your bill!
