IBM Cloud is raising its cloud prices, substantially in some cases, following in the footsteps of rivals.
IBM has been reinventing itself as a hybrid cloud provider. While it still lags behind the industry’s biggest players, it is mimicking them in one major way: price hikes.
The company just revealed 2024’s pricing in a GitHub post:
| Location | Current Uplift | New Uplift | Effective Increase |
|---|---|---|---|
| Dallas \n San Jose \n Washington DC | 0% | 0% | No Change |
| Amsterdam \n Montreal \n Toronto | 3% | 6% | +2.9% |
| London | 7% | 13% | +5.6% |
| Frankfurt \n Madrid \n Milan \n Paris | 10% | 16% | +5.5% |
| Osaka \n Singapore \n Tokyo | 13% | 20% | +6.2% |
| Chennai \n Sydney | 20% | 20% | No Change |
| Sao Paulo | 20% | 29% | +7.5% |
The post says the price change applies to the following services:
Bare Metal Servers, Virtual Server Instance, File and Block Storage, and Networking infrastructure, for both Classic and VPC offerings, and, in Sao Paulo only, Cloud Object Storage.
