Renting cloud infrastructure typically gets cheaper over time, but Google Cloud is bucking this trend today with significant price increases across a number of core services. These increases, which Google announced under the guise of wanting to provide “more flexible pricing models and options,” will go into effect on October 1, 2022. Most developers are not amused.

It’s not all bad news, with some archive storage at rest in Google’s U.S., Europe and Asia regions decreasing in price and there’s a new lower-cost Persistent Disk archive snapshot option, too. The company is also raising its “Always Free Internet” egress from 1GB per month to 100GB per month.
