<p>Billing is now enabled for <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/basin-catalog/">R2 Data Catalog</a> on non-enterprise accounts. R2 Data Catalog usage beyond the included free tier will appear on your next invoice.</p> <p>R2 Data Catalog charges based on two dimensions, in addition to standard <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/r2/pricing/">R2 storage and operations</a>:</p> <ul> <li><strong>Catalog operations</strong>: $9.00 / million operations for metadata requests such as creating tables, reading table metadata, and updating table properties.</li> <li><strong>Compaction</strong>: $0.005 / GB processed and $2.00 / million objects processed. These charges only apply when <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/basin-catalog/table-maintenance/">automatic compaction</a> is turned on for a table.</li> </ul> <p>Each dimension includes a monthly free tier: 1 million catalog operations, 10 GB of compaction data processed, and 1 million compaction objects processed.</p> <p>For example, a single Iceberg table with 50 GB of data, 500,000 catalog operations per month, and compaction turned on that processes 20 GB across 200,000 files would be billed as follows:</p> <div class="table-scroll" tabindex="0" role="region" aria-label="Table"><table> <thead> <tr> <th>Dimension</th> <th>Usage</th> <th>Included</th> <th>Billable</th> <th>Cost</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody> <tr> <td>Catalog operations</td> <td>500,000</td> <td>1,000,000</td> <td>0</td> <td>$0.00</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Compaction (data processed)</td> <td>20 GB</td> <td>10 GB</td> <td>10 GB</td> <td>$0.05</td> </tr> <tr> <td>Compaction (objects)</td> <td>200,000</td> <td>1,000,000</td> <td>0</td> <td>$0.00</td> </tr> <tr> <td><strong>Total (Data Catalog)</strong></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td></td> <td><strong>$0.05</strong></td> </tr> </tbody> </table></div> <p>Standard R2 storage charges ($0.015 / GB-month) apply separately for the 50 GB of data stored.</p> <p>For full pricing details and billing examples, refer to <a href="https://developers.cloudflare.com/basin-catalog/platform/pricing/">R2 Data Catalog pricing</a>.</p>
