I'm using azure data factory for some migration project. while doing it I came a cross with some clarification. I just want to know if I keep a pipeline in ADF without using it will there be a cost for that? I need to run some pipelines according to a schedule like weekly or monthly. Please help

Yes: $0.80 / month / inactive pipeline. According to Data Pipeline Pricing, under the heading Inactive pipelines,

A pipeline is considered inactive if it has no associated trigger or any runs within the month. An inactive pipeline is charged at $0.80 per month.

    I think the above statement is true for ADF v01 (available at same page you shared). Not sure about ADF v02 though) EDIT: Grammar. – Nirupam Nishant Mar 18 '22 at 13:20

Quick answer is NO. Based on ADF pricing document,the billing consists of Data pipelines and SQL Server Integration Services.

Your account only need to pay when you execute your activities(in the pipelines). Or it is related to migration of SQL Server DB.

  • Clarification question -- what is an "activity run" exactly? -- Is it a flat rate for an activity that's run once? -- What if the activity is transforming petabytes of data? -- Surely there is a higher cost? – BrainSlugs83 Feb 08 '21 at 20:43
