Why this sizing
This Extra Small tier supports up to 1 TB of replicated OLTP data on a three-node CockroachDB cluster. Compute instances are the dominant cost driver, accounting for $420 of the $600 monthly total. The architecture provisions 3x Standard_D4s_v5 instances, each with 4 vCPU and 16 GB RAM, alongside 500 GB of SSD storage per node. This configuration prioritizes compute over storage capacity, with storage costing $180 monthly.
