Charges are incurred as follows:

• Your project starts incurring charges for the Parallelstore instance at the time you create the instance.
• You are charged based on the provisioned capacity, not based on the capacity used. For example, if you create a 12,000 GiB instance and store 1000 GiB of data on it, you incur charges for the entire 12,000 GiB.
• Your project stops incurring charges for the Parallelstore instance at the time you delete the instance, rounded up to the nearest second.
