Five-year GCP infrastructure cost projections for the Eureka data platform — raw Telco data storage, Omni Alpha processing, Omni Enterprise category pipeline, Omni Pinpoint venue-level location intelligence, and Omni Insights custom analytics. Covers BigQuery storage tiers, GCS Archive accumulation, BQ Enterprise Slots compute, BQ Flex Slots for geospatial aggregation, BQ On-Demand for ad-hoc analysis, and dataset delivery via Analytics Hub and S3.
Annual GCP spend by product tier and by cost category. Raw data storage dominates — archive accumulation makes 2027 onward significantly more expensive than the 2026 H2 baseline.

Each product is costed independently based on its data volume, pipeline complexity, and compute footprint.
Daily Telco processing pipeline delivering alternative data signals — web traffic, foot traffic, and demographic enrichment — via BQ Analytics Hub. Enterprise Slots pricing keeps compute costs flat per unit as volume grows.
Per-category 5-step pipeline: 20 categories × 50% coverage = 196 TB/day total scan. BQ Enterprise Slots ($220/day, 500 slots × 10hr) is the recommended compute — 5.6× cheaper than BQ On-Demand ($1,225/day). 5 intermediate tables × 12-month retention (~$40/month per category).
High-precision geospatial analytics pipeline processing foot traffic signals at venue level. Combines MSISDN resolution with POI mapping to deliver visit attribution and dwell-time insights for retail and real-estate intelligence.
Ad-hoc BigQuery analysis joining Web Traffic and Foot Traffic datasets. Pay only per analysis run — no idle compute, no duplicate storage cost.
5-year storage cost model for 20 TB/day of raw Telco signals — BigQuery 6-month hot window and GCS Archive permanent cold tier. The dominant cost category across all products.
GCP list-price infrastructure costs sourced directly from each product cost model. 2026 reflects H2 only (Jul–Dec, 184 days). Alpha uses 700 BQ Enterprise Slots × 5 hr/day ($154/day) + S3 daily delivery at 16 GB/day (Parquet/Snappy, egress $0.085/GB + 24-month rolling archive); 11 output tables scanning 80 TB/day (5×4 TB web + 5×12 TB FT); 12-month output storage. Enterprise uses BQ Enterprise Slots at $220/day (500 slots × 10hr, per-category mode, 196 TB/day) with 5 intermediate tables × 12-month retention (~$40/month per category). Omni Insights uses BQ On-Demand for ad-hoc analysis; no input storage charge since data lives in the ingestion pipeline. Raw storage assumes 20 TB/day ingest, 6-month BQ window, GCS Archive permanent cold tier.
