TigerGraph Savanna Pricing FAQ
Pricing for TigerGraph Savanna is based on the virtual machine instance(s) and storage capacity you consume. Efficient data compression and parallel processing mean you’ll get a surprising amount of data storage and query performance out of each instance. TigerGraph works with leading cloud providers to use the most optimal compute nodes and storage services to maximize TigerGraph Savanna performance at the lowest cost to you.

TigerGraph Savanna charges for three resources: storage, compute, and add-ons. Savanna doesn’t charge for data transfer at this time. The hourly rate depends on the resource type and the geographic region. Storage usage is checked every 10 minutes and prorated. Compute and add-on usage is measured from the time that you request to turn it on until the time it is fully off or terminated, measured with 1-minute granularity and prorated.
Storage is used to hold your graph data, metadata, and backup files; it is considered active if it is storing your data. It is fully elastic, adjusting to your actual usage.
A workspace is a managed unit of compute resources, which comprises CPU and memory. Your storage may have multiple workspaces attached to it. Each workspace can be assigned its own workload. The hourly rate for each workspace depends on its size and replication factor.
Each add-on has its own pricing; some are free. See the FAQ about add-ons, or check the Savanna Pricing information in TigerGraph’s Documentation.
Our billing system will total the charges at the end of each calendar month, generate an itemized invoice, and charge your credit card.
High Availability (HA) on TigerGraph Savanna ensures your graph database remains operational even during disruptions. When HA is enabled, the price is calculated using a multiplier based on the size of your TigerGraph compute resource.
Compute Size | Replication Factor | Cost Multiplier |
Sizes equal or below TG-8 | 3 | 2.8x |
Sizes above TG-8 | 2 | 1.95x |
Add-On | Scope | Price |
Insights | Workspace | 10% of the compute usage |
GraphStudio™ | Workspace | Free |
GraphQL | Workspace | Free |
TigerGraph Savanna lowers the cost of ownership in three ways: compressed data, more efficient computation, and elastic and independent scaling of storage and computation:
- TigerGraph’s compression rate yields a graph data footprint smaller than the raw input data size. Other graph platforms often generate a stored graph that is larger than the raw input data
- Savanna ingests data and runs queries up to 100x faster than other graph platforms. This translates either more modestly sized compute units or shorter times that resources need to be active.
- Savanna’s separation of storage and compute, with fast deployment of tailored compute resources means you can optimize your spending by enabling exactly what you need and then pausing or decommissioning resources that aren’t needed.
TigerGraph Savanna is more cost-effective than other graph databases running in the cloud. Please see this independent benchmark report. For more TCO comparisons, please contact us.
