Data Transfer

You can purchase subscription data transfer package or pay-as-you-go data transfer. You are billed by the egress data transfer.

• Subscription The data transfer in the subscription package is only valid within a calendar month, and data consumed beyond the package will be paid per GB by hour afterward.

• Pay-as-you-go You will be charged per GB by hour. If any overdue payment exists, service and billing will stop and all data will be stored for 24 hours.

For both subscription and pay-as-you-go instances, data transfer usage displayed in the instance list is calculated on a calendar month basis since creation. A calendar month is the the period from a day of one month to the corresponding day of the next month if such exists or if not to the last day of the next month (as from January 3 to February 3 or from January 31 to February 29).

Data Transfer Usage

Here are examples.

• Assume you purchase a 3-month subscription instance on May 15. It is billed by data transfer with a package of 5 TB every month. Then 0.00TB/5.00TB here represents the used and total data transfer from May 15 to May 31st. The data will be reset from Jun. 1st and calculated again for the following calendar month, that is from Jun. 1st to Jun. 30.

• Assume you purchase a pay-as-you-go instance on May 15. It is billed by data transfer per GB by hour. Then 0.00TB here represents the used data transfer from May 15 to May 31st. The data will be reset from Jun. 1st and calculated again for the following calendar month, that is from Jun. 1st to Jun. 30.

Note

You are highly recommended to buy a sufficient data transfer package according to your actual business.
