PlanetScale Postgres Cost Calculator

Toggle HA (replication_factor=3) vs single-node, pick ARM (preferred) or x86, and choose a PS-5→PS-320 SKU. See the monthly cluster $ for AWS us-east-1 (snapshot 2026-11-02). Region disclaimer: prices vary by cloud/region. SKU excludes extra EBS, backups, egress above included and dedicated PgBouncer. Vitess / Neki / Metal / multi-region out of MVP.

Region disclaimer: MVP models Postgres EBS cluster SKU only, default AWS us-east-1 (snapshot generated 2026-11-02). Prices vary by cloud/region. Prefer ARM. HA ARM examples: PS-5 $15, PS-10 $30, PS-20 $50, PS-40 $83, PS-80 $148, PS-160 $286, PS-320 $570. Non-HA ARM: PS-5 $5, PS-10 $10, PS-20 $17, PS-40 $28, PS-80 $50, PS-160 $96, PS-320 $190. x86 rows included (e.g. HA PS-10 $39, non-HA PS-10 $13). SKU price excludes extra EBS, backups, egress above included, dedicated PgBouncer ($0 placeholders). Out of MVP: Vitess, Neki, Metal, multi-region SUM (multi-region = sum independent clusters). Larger SKUs: see official table.

How it works

What does this PlanetScale calculator cover?
Postgres EBS cluster SKU only on AWS us-east-1 (pricing.md snapshot 2026-11-02): HA (replication_factor=3) vs single-node, ARM (default) or x86, SKUs PS-5→PS-320.
What are example monthly SKU prices?
Non-HA ARM: PS-5 $5, PS-10 $10, PS-20 $17. HA ARM: PS-5 $15, PS-10 $30, PS-20 $50. x86 is higher on most sizes (e.g. HA PS-10 $39, non-HA PS-10 $13).
Why the region disclaimer?
PlanetScale prices vary by cloud provider and region. This MVP hardcodes the public AWS us-east-1 snapshot so the math stays auditable. Re-query planetscale_prices or pricing.md for other regions.
What is not in the SKU price?
Extra EBS beyond included volume, backups, egress above included GB, and dedicated PgBouncer are excluded ($0 placeholders + footnote).
Are Vitess, Neki or Metal included?
No. Vitess, Neki, Metal and multi-region topologies are out of MVP. Multi-region cost = sum of independent cluster SKUs.
