Hello SAP Gurus,
i have a question regarding the Kyma Capacity Units. I need an estimate for the approximate costs for Kyma.
But unfortunately I don't understand the calculation of the Capacity Units.
What exactly is the "Time Consumption" metric ?
Doesn't the runtime always run 720 hours a month because it's a cloud service?
Cant find anything in the Trial Account regaring pausing of runtime/nodes.
I am happy for any information or links regarding this topic 🙂
Regards
Simon
Request clarification before answering.
Hi Simon,
Kyma is billed on an hourly basis.
What it implies is that if you enable a Kyma runtime and use it for let's say 10 hours and disable it afterward, you will be charged for those 10 hours and not for a full month.
Disabling implies that the Kyma runtime instance is unprovisioned, it is totally gone and start new next time you enable Kyma. So you won't be disabling your production environments or environments which you would like to run continuously, and they will be running for 720 hours.
However, for some dev scenarios, you might like to provision a Kyma runtime, try / test something out and then unprovisioned it. For such scenarios, it might make sense to only pay for the short period when you had Kyma enabled.
You can also check the help.sap.com link https://help.sap.com/docs/btp/sap-business-technology-platform/commercial-information-for-sap-btp-ky... for further information.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Gaurav

Hi Simon,
This save is only for the dashboard settings.
Any configuration you do on Kyma, I would recommend doing it via Infrastructure as code. That way, it would be easier to regenerate all config. Just a matter of running a pipeline or doing GitOps.
Furthermore, you can use BTP Terraform provider to even automate provisioning of Kyma runtime.
