Monthly is 730 hours and annual is 8,760. Google doesn't offer Windows on Arm, so c4a-highmem-96-metal has Linux prices only.

What the prices include

  • Regions. c4a-highmem-96-metal is priced in the 7 regions where Compute Engine runs it in at least one zone. It may run in only some of a region's zones.
  • Commitments. The 1-yr and 3-yr rates are resource-based committed use discounts: you commit to an amount of C4A vCPU and memory in one region and pay for it whether you use it or not. Flexible (spend-based) commitments discount less and aren't shown.
  • Sustained use. C4A gets no sustained-use discount.
