TigerBeetle · FinOps Profile

Tigerbeetle Finops

FinOps view of TigerBeetle spend. TigerBeetle's database is open source (Apache 2.0) and free to self-host - in that model there is no vendor invoice and no per-operation charge; the cost is entirely your own compute, storage, and network for running the replicated cluster and the client applications that talk to it over the binary TCP protocol. TigerBeetle also offers a fully managed / enterprise service (cross-cloud deployments, disaster recovery, 24/7 support) that is contact-sales with negotiated pricing rather than a metered, published rate card. Because access is via the binary-protocol client libraries, there is no billed-HTTP-request meter to allocate.
