THE PROBLEM
Google Cloud is the hardest place to commit safely
No flexible discount under a year. A gap between one and three years. Resource-based CUDs you can't cancel or modify. You're forced to bet one to three years on a forecast, and if you overcommit you're stuck paying for capacity you don't use.
WHAT IT IS
Guaranteed Committed Use Discounts
GCUDs are Google Cloud commitments with Archera's guarantee built in. Commit on your terms, and we cover what you don't use. GCUDs join GRIs and GSPs, extending Archera's core guarantee to Google Cloud.

HOW IT WORKS
Commit without the risk
When your workloads don't align with your commitments, you'll be spending money for resources you're not actually using. Archera's GCUDS protect you from this risk by paying you back for underutilization of your CUDS. Regain the flexibility to change your infrastructure when and how you see fit.

FAQ
Questions, answered.
How is this different from buying native CUDs?
Native CUDs lock you into a one or three year term, and if your usage drops you still pay for the full commitment. A Guaranteed CUD gives you similar savings on terms as short as 30 days, and rebates you for anything you don't use.
What does the guarantee cover, and how does the rebate work?
The Rebate Guarantee covers underutilization: if you don't use the full commitment you bought, Archera pays back the cost of the unused portion directly to your bank account. You're never stuck paying for capacity you didn't need.
Which Google Cloud services are supported?
Guaranteed CUDs cover Google Cloud's reservable services, including Compute Engine, GKE, Cloud Run, Cloud SQL, Cloud Spanner, Memorystore, BigTable, AlloyDB, and Google Cloud VMware Engine.
How are savings calculated?
Savings depend on your actual usage, the services you commit to, and the term you choose, all net of the Archera premium. A free savings analysis shows your specific numbers before you commit to anything.
How fast do I see recommendations?
On a standard setup, recommendations are typically ready within about a week of connecting. Larger or custom environments can take longer.
Is my data safe?
Yes. Archera connects read-only and never touches your workloads, data, or code, only the billing and usage data needed to find savings.
