[google-cloud-sql-discuss] Re: Despite shutting down the instance, it continues to cost money

Hello,

As stated in this document, stopping the instance does not stop some charges such as storage (the data is still being stored even though the instance is stopped) and IP address. If you would like to avoid being charged in any way due to having this instance stopped, you would need to delete it. However, you could try contacting billing support to get more information about these charges you are seeing.

Hi,

Thank you for your quick reply.

When I checked the details further, the SQL for writing was always executed, and the storage was constantly increasing. 

This write SQL is still running even if I stop the instance on Cloud SQL.

What is the SQL for this write?

How can I stop it?

Best regards,

Hi,

I understand that your Cloud SQL instance is not running, but even if it is stopped some charges like storage and IP addresses still apply [1], so it is likely that the growing cost is coming from there.

I registered for a 90-day free trial of google app engine.

After creating a project on google app engine, I created an instance on cloud sql and created a database with MySQL 8.0.

Currently the project is not running on google app engine. The instance on cloud sql is also stopped. However, SQL storage is still growing on its own, costing $ 82.65 in just four days.

Looking at the payment report, the following three are the main factors.

Cloud SQL for MySQL: Regional --RAM in JAPAN

Cloud SQL for MySQL: Regional --Standard storage in JAPAN

Cloud SQL for MySQL: Regional --vCPU in JAPAN

Both the project on google app engine and the instance on cloud sql are down, but the cost continues to be taken.

How can I stop it?
