The storage resource pack is a prepaid resource type in TDSQL-C for MySQL, which can be used to deduct the storage resources used by the serverless cluster. This document describes the specification types and prices of storage resource packs.

Case
Overview
In the Beijing region, there are two Serverless clusters, A and B. Serverless cluster B has purchased and bound a basic edition storage resource package, with a storage capacity of 10 TB and a validity period of six months, at a unit price of USD0.2568 per TB per hour. Serverless cluster A has not bound any storage resource package and is subject to the standard storage space price of USD0.00072 per GB per hour, approximately USD0.72 per TB per hour.
Scenario
Assuming both Serverless clusters A and B operate continuously for three hours, with the storage space utilization being 0.5TB in the first hour, 1 TB in the second hour, and 2 TB in the third hour.
Serverless Cluster A
The storage resource fees for the first hour = Serverless storage space price x storage space = 0.72 x 0.5 = USD0.36.
The storage resource fees for the second hour = Serverless storage space price x storage space = 0.72 x 1 = USD0.72.
The storage resource fees for the third hour = Serverless storage space price x storage space = 0.72 x 2 = USD1.44.
The total storage resource fees for running three hours = fees for the first hour + fees for the second hour + fees for the third hour = USD2.52.
Serverless Cluster B
The storage resource fees for the first hour = 0.2568 x 0.5 = USD0.1284.
The storage resource fees for the second hour = 0.2568 x 1 = USD0.2568.
The storage resource fees for the third hour = 0.2568 x 2 = USD0.5136.
The total storage resource fees for running three hours = USD0.8988.
The storage resource package offsets a consumption of 3.5 TB, leaving a remaining balance of 6.5 TB.
Note
Storage resource packages will accumulate the actual storage usage on an hourly basis for deduction, which is more cost-effective and flexible than the pay-as-you-go option. Before the deduction of the serverless cluster, you must first bind a storage resource pack. The cluster will not be terminated when the resource pack is unbound, used up, or expires. It will instead be billed on a pay-as-you-go basis. It is important to note the following points:
Storage resource packs are classified into two types: those for the Chinese mainland and those for regions outside the Chinese mainland. Each type is specified to be shared by all serverless clusters in the region, that is, one storage resource pack can be shared by multiple serverless clusters.
A serverless cluster can be bound to a maximum of ten storage resource packages, with support for adjusting the consumption priority order of multiple storage resource packages. The cluster will consume resources in ascending order based on the priority level numbers. Storage resource packages will accumulate the consumption on an hourly basis for deduction.
Storage resource packages do not support downgrade once purchased.
Management
Refund
For resource packages that remain unused within their validity period, each Tencent Cloud account (primary account) is calculated on a calendar year basis, with a maximum of 20 refundable resource packages per year. As for resource packages that have expired or been fully utilized, refunds are currently not supported. For detailed refund instructions, see Requesting Refund for Resource Pack. Note:
Regarding the limitation on the number of refunds, the system calculates this on a calendar year basis. The first calendar year cycle is from June 30, 2023, at 23:59:59 to July 1, 2024, at 00:00:00. The count refreshes on July 1 at 00:00:00 every year, thus the second calendar year cycle is from July 1, 2024, at 00:00:00 to June 30, 2025, at 23:59:59, and so on.
