How does the pricing work for large pipeline output

[lukasz_wojcik]

Hi, I'm working on a project that is a PITA to build as it is resource intensive to build. I'd like to move that process to pipelines. I need help understanding pricing details. So let's assume, that output of the build stage is around 100GB in volume, and each build takes around 4h. I'm currently on free plan. Only 2 BB users need access to this feature. What would be my optimal plan, what would I be charged for. Is LFS the same as build artifacts size or does it refer to binaries that sometimes people include in their GIT repos ?

Hi lukasz_wojcik,

May I know what you mean by the "output of the build stage is around 100GB in volume"? Are you referring to storage in the repository, or storage as a build artifact? 

The repository size limit is 4GB across all plans, LFS limit is 10GB for Premium (you can purchase additional 100GB chunks for an extra $10 per month, per 100GB chunk) - more on LFS below:

LFS is not the same as build artifact size. An artifact is simply something you store as a result of a build step so that it can be passed to another build step, the storage limit is 1GB for artifacts. LFS is storage outside the repository for large binary files.

Additionally, the maximum build time across all plans is 2 hours. If you need additional build resources to speed up the processing time - you can make use of 4x/8x pipelines steps which is a Premium feature (note that this consumes 4 times/8 times the build minutes as a regular step):

Premium has the most amount of build minutes available per month (3500) and more can be purchased in chunks ($10 per month/1,000 minutes) - I'd highly recommend reviewing our plans page to determine the plan that is right for you:
