Questions

How many DBUs does n2-highcpu-80 use on Databricks?
n2-highcpu-80 uses 10.8 DBUs an hour on Databricks classic compute, the same on jobs, all-purpose and pipeline compute. The price list gives no Photon rate for it.
How much does n2-highcpu-80 cost an hour on Databricks?
In Iowa (us-central1), 1 n2-highcpu-80 node on Jobs Compute costs $4.49 an hour: $1.62 to Databricks for 10.8 DBUs at $0.15 each, and $2.87 to Google Cloud for the machine. On All-Purpose Compute the same node costs $8.81 an hour, and on Lakeflow pipelines Core $5.03. A cluster pays this for every worker and for the driver.
Which region is cheapest for n2-highcpu-80 on Databricks?
Iowa (us-central1), at $4.49 an hour for 1 node on Jobs Compute, against $6.21 in Dammam (me-central2), the dearest of the 15 regions listed here that offer it. Databricks charges the same for a DBU of Jobs Compute in every Google Cloud region listed, so the gap is the machine.
What is the same size as n2-highcpu-80 on the other clouds?
The nearest worker types of the same kind are c6id.24xlarge on AWS and Standard_D96ds_v5 on Azure. Each cloud gives its own DBUs an hour for its types, so compare what a cluster costs in the calculator, not the DBUs alone.
What is the next size down from n2-highcpu-80?
n2-highcpu-80 is the largest size of its family listed here. One size down is n2-highcpu-64, at 8.64 DBUs an hour.
