The Redis Cloud cost report gives you a detailed breakdown of your Redis Cloud subscription usage and associated charges. You can use it to track, audit, and optimize your Redis Cloud spending across Essentials and Pro subscription plans.
You can download the cost report from the Billing and payments and Usage reports pages.
Select the Cost report button to download a report of all shard costs in CSV format.
The report gives a breakdown of all your Redis billing unit costs, per subscription and database, by month. Subscriptions under the minimum subscription price are broken down into actual billing unit prices and the difference from minimum price.
The cost report helps you with:
- Internal cost visibility
- Usage trend analysis
- Budget forecasting
- Troubleshooting unexpected charges
Consider the following limitations when you view the cost report:
- All pricing is based on list price. Account-specific discounts don't appear in the cost report.
- Network costs for Pro subscriptions aren't available in the cost report before November 2025.
- Network costs for Pro subscriptions appear for each subscription. Network costs for individual databases aren't available.
- Monthly network costs for Pro subscriptions take up to 72 hours to appear in the cost report.
Structure
The cost report CSV file has two sections: one for Redis Cloud Essentials subscriptions and one for Redis Cloud Pro subscriptions.
For more information about how to use the cost report effectively, see How to download and visualize the cost report in the Redis knowledge base.
Essentials subscriptions
In the Essentials subscription section, each row represents one month of usage for a subscription.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Start date | The start date of the usage period |
| End date | The end date of the usage period |
| Subscription ID | The subscription's unique ID |
| Subscription name | The subscription's name |
| Plan size | The size of the subscription plan, in MB |
| Plan cost | The cost of the subscription plan for the usage period |
All columns after the Plan cost column show the key values for any tags you added to databases in all subscriptions. If a database has a tag with that key, the cell shows the tag value. You can use this information to filter and analyze your costs by tag.
Pro subscriptions
In the Pro subscription section, each subscription has multiple rows per usage period:
- Each row represents each database's usage within the subscription over the usage period.
- If you changed a database's configuration, the cost report shows additional rows for usage before and after the change.
- For Active-Active databases, there are multiple rows for each region of the database.
- Another row shows the monthly network costs for the subscription after November 2025.
- If the Pro subscription doesn't meet the minimum price threshold, the cost report shows the actual cost of the subscription and another row shows the difference from the minimum price.
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Start date | The start date of the usage period |
| End date | The end date of the usage period |
| Subscription ID | The subscription's unique ID |
| Subscription name | The subscription's name |
| Database ID | The database's unique ID |
| Database name | The database's name |
| Region | The database's region. For Active-Active databases, the cost report shows a row for each region of the database. |
| High availability | Whether the subscription is highly available |
| Memory limit | The database's memory limit, in MB |
| Throughput | The database's throughput, in ops/sec |
| RBU type | The Redis Billing Unit (RBU) type of the database. This column shows "difference from min subscription price" for the row that shows the difference from the minimum subscription price, and "Network" for the row that shows the monthly network costs for the subscription. |
| RBU Count | The number of Redis Billing Units (RBUs) used by the database. |
| RBU Price/hr | The price per hour for the Redis Billing Unit (RBU) type of the database. |
| Hours | The number of hours the database was active during the usage period. |
| Total cost | The total cost of the database or network costs for the usage period |
All columns after the Total cost column show the key values for any tags you added to databases in all subscriptions. If a database has a tag with that key, the column shows the value for that tag. You can use this information to filter and analyze your costs by tag.
Billing unit types
The Redis Billing Unit types associated with your Pro subscription depend on your database memory size and throughput requirements.
| Billing unit type | Capacity (Memory/Throughput) |
|---|---|
| Pico | 100MB / 100 ops/sec |
| Nano | 500MB / 500 ops/sec |
| Micro | 1GB / 1K ops/sec |
| High-throughput | 2.5GB / 25K ops/sec |
| Small | 12.5GB / 12.5K ops/sec |
| Large | 25GB / 25K ops/sec |
| Very large1 | 50GB / 5K ops/sec |
| XLarge2 | 50GB / 10K ops/sec |
Prices vary according to the cloud provider and region. Minimum prices apply.
