Firebolt Pricing 2026: Plans, Pros & Cons

Overview

Firebolt is a cloud data warehouse designed for low-latency, high-concurrency analytics. It is offered as a managed service, as bring-your-own-cloud (BYOC) and as self-hosted software, the last described as available “without limits”^[16].

Managed and BYOC compute is billed per second on Arm-based nodes, priced by node size and type; Firebolt’s example is a compute-optimised S node in US East at US$0.92 an hour, about US$672 a month if run continuously. Storage is passed through from object storage at US$0.0264 per GB per month of compressed data, so one node plus 1 TB of storage is estimated at about US$699 a month^[16]. Engines can scale to zero, stop when idle and restart in seconds, and new accounts receive US$200 of credit^[16].

Listed features include workload isolation, automatic scaling, online version upgrades and audit logs, and Firebolt lists SOC 2, ISO 27001, ISO 27018 and HIPAA compliance; the service runs in six regions across the US, Europe and Asia Pacific^[16]. Firebolt suits data-intensive applications and customer-facing dashboards; its limitations are a smaller ecosystem and fewer regions than the hyperscalers.
