Hello. I am using SonarQube Enterprise edition. I have it heavily integrated into our CI CD processes, and therefore we run a number of scans. I was just curious if there is any cost incurred, from SonarQube, for additional scans. Is there any price incurred based on the frequency or quantity of scans for Enterprise edition? Thank you in advance for your help.
Hi!
No, there are no additional cost based on the frequency or quantity of scans.
Developer Edition, Enterprise Edition, and Data Center Edition are priced per instance per year and based on your lines of code (LOC). An instance is an installation of SonarQube. You pay per instance for a maximum number of LOC to be analyzed.
LOC is calculated by summing up the LOC of each project analyzed in your SonarQube instance. Blank lines, comments, and lines of test code are never included in the count. The LOC of a project is counted as the lines in the largest branch of the project. If you have set up branch analysis for your project, the LOC used for a project are the ones found during the most recent analysis of the project with the largest branch or pull request.
If you are getting close to the threshold, you will be notified to either upgrade your plan or reduce the number of LOCs in your projects. If you reach your limit, you will receive an error message and the SonarQube instance will reject any new analysis whose total lines of code exceed the limit defined by your license. However, SonarQube will retain basic functionality such as saving configuration changes and allowing project browsing.
Best regards.
