GCP Databricks GKE cluster with 4 nodes

manojpatil04

I am working on setting up GCP Databricks and successfully created first GCP-Databricks workspace, but what I observed is it is incurring additional charges even i am using 14days free trail. It is GKE cluster with 4 nodes which are spin up as part of workspace creation. Is there way to delete/reduced pods so that additional GCP costs can be reduced.

Databricks on GCP utilizes Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE) clusters as part of its infrastructure. These GKE clusters can incur costs even when no Databricks clusters are actively running. The GKE cluster is used to manage the Databricks environment, and charges apply for the underlying infrastructure

Hope this helps.
