IBM cloud list of services with their pricing info


I'm looking for a list of IBM cloud services with their pricing info similar to the ones provided by Google cloud and AWS services here and here. I looked on their website under the pricing section and I wasn't successful.


Solution

  • The IBM Cloud CLI has a command to show the service offerings available to you and the available service plans. The same information is available through the Cloud Foundry API. You can retrieve the service plan details through the Service API and then following the "service_plans_url", this stack overflow answer shows how to use cURL with this API. Here is a public app that shows how that API and the retrieved information has been used: http://mycatalog.mybluemix.net/

    Note that there is IBM Cloud Public and also dedicated versions of it (IBM Cloud Dedicated). Service pricing depends on the account type, contract type and consumption, etc.

    You might want to turn tracing on to see how the CLI processes the request using the API:
    export BLUEMIX_TRACE=true; ibmcloud service offerings
