Azure Database for PostgreSQL
Managed PostgreSQL database service for app developers
Azure Database for PostgreSQL provides a fully managed database service for app development and deployment with built-in capabilities, such as high availability, at no extra cost.
Single Server is a preconfigured database server and is best for workloads where the database have minimal customization requirements including:
- Automatic database patching and maintenance
- Built-in high availability with 99.99% SLA
Workloads requiring light compute and I/O performance.
Compute
Compute is provisioned in virtual cores (vCores). A vCore represents a logical CPU offered with an option to choose between compute generations.
Compute Gen 5
Gen 5 logical CPUs are based on Intel E5-2673 v4 (Broadwell) 2.3 GHz processors.

Storage
You are charged for the storage that you provision for your server. Storage can be provisioned up to 1 TB.

|---|---|
| GB/month | ¥0.7938 |
Backup
Backup storage is the storage associated with automated backups of your server. Increasing your backup retention period increases the backup storage that is consumed by your server. There is no additional charge for backup storage for up to 100% of your total provisioned server storage. Additional consumption of backup storage will be charged in GB/month.

FAQ
Expand all-
How is my bill calculated?
Flexible Server is billed on a predictable, hourly rate. You are billed for the compute and storage you provision and the backup storage you consume. On your bill, you will see a separate line item for compute, storage, and backup storage. Compute is billed per vCore-hour. Storage and backup storage are billed per GiB-month.
-
How am I billed for zone redundant HA servers?
Zone redundant HA servers have a primary and secondary replica. You are billed for the provisioned compute and storage for both the primary and secondary replica. For example, if you have a primary with 4 vCores of compute and 512 GiB of provisioned storage, your secondary replica will also have 4 vCores and 512 GiB of provisioned storage. Your zone redundant HA server will be billed for 8 vCores and 1,024 GiB of storage. Depending on your backup storage volume, you may also be billed for backup storage.
-
What if my server is active for less than an hour or uses a different compute tier for less than an hour?
You are billed for each full hour that your server exists regardless of whether the server was active for the full hour. If you have scaled up your database, you will be billed for the higher number of vCores used within the hour. If you have switched between two compute tiers, you will be billed for the higher priced compute tier.
For example:
- If you create a server and delete it after five minutes, you are charged for one full hour for the provisioned compute and storage.
- If you create a server with 8 vCores of General Purpose compute and then immediately scale up to 16 vCores of General Purpose compute, you are charged for 16 vCores of General Purpose compute for the first hour.
- If you create a server with General Purpose compute with 8 vCores and then immediately upgrade it to Memory Optimized compute with 8 vCores, you are charged for 8 vCores Memory Optimized compute for the first hour.
-
How am I billed if I use the stop/start feature?
While your server is stopped, you will only be billed for the storage you have provisioned and any backup storage you consume that exceed 100% of your primary provisioned storage volume. While your server is stopped, you will not be billed for compute.
-
Do I incur any network data transfer charges?
Yes. Standard networking charges apply for network egress. Refer here for more details.
