Hi Team,

My question is around the costs when using Azure Integration Runtime Vs Self Hosted Integration Runtime.
For the sake - I created a pipeline with two copy activities, each activity imports the data HTTP API and copies that onto a ADLS Gen2 storage account.

Here are the screenshots when I ran the pipeline with Azure Integration Runtime Vs Self Hosted Integration Runtime. Can someone please assist me on the exact price incurred for this execution based on the screenshot, please?

Hello @Vivek Komarla Bhaskar ,

Welcome to the MS Q&A platform.

We will need to consider the below while calculating the pipeline run cost

1) Operation

Read/write/update/delete
monitoring: get, list

2) Orchestration and execution

Activity runs, debug runs, trigger executions

Data movement per DIU- hour

Pipeline activity per hour

External activities(stored proc, notebooks) per hour

3) Data flows- cost depends on cluster size

Basic -General purpose

Standard - memory optimized

In your case, the price will be the same for running the pipeline on Azure IR and SHIR(Both costs $0.02)

But if you run the activity runs for 2000 times, then you will get benefited from Azure IR.

Azure IR costs 2*1 = $2
SHIR costs 2*1.5 = $3

You can use the pricing calculator to find these costs: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/pricing/calculator/

Please note: All activities are prorated by the min and rounded up

Ex: if the duration is 10 sec, it will be rounded as 1 min,
if the duration is 1min 10 sec then it will be rounded as 2 mins
