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.
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.
Commit short, not only one to three years.
Archera rebates what you don’t use.
See what you could save via a free savings analysis on your real usage.
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.
Archera never touches workloads, data, or code.
From your real usage, across your Google Cloud services.
Purchase through Archera; the guarantee covers unused commitment waste.
You decide what’s purchased and what’s guaranteed. Archera will help you manage all your CUDs at no cost, only charging a premium when you want a guarantee on CUDs. Your commitments, your control, using methods Google Cloud approves.
AWS, Azure, and now Google Cloud. Manage every cloud’s Guaranteed Commitments in one place. The same guarantee that saves you money on AWS and Azure now covers Google Cloud.
Savings Plans and Reserved Instances, guaranteed.
Reservations and savings plans, guaranteed.
Committed Use Discounts, guaranteed.
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.
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.
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.
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.
On a standard setup, recommendations are typically ready within about a week of connecting. Larger or custom environments can take longer.
Yes. Archera connects read-only and never touches your workloads, data, or code, only the billing and usage data needed to find savings.
