DataWorks:Intelligent data modeling billing

Last Updated:Jul 10, 2026

Intelligent data modeling is billed on a subscription basis by the number of objects you create, with multiple editions for different scales.

Usage notes

  • To purchase intelligent data modeling, you must have an active subscription to any edition of DataWorks or purchase a new one. For more information about DataWorks editions, see Software edition selection and billing.

  • To use the OpenAPI for intelligent data modeling, you must have active subscriptions for both DataWorks and intelligent data modeling.

Billing calculation

Your edition is determined by the number of objects, calculated as follows.

Number of objects = Total number of logical models + ROUNDUP(Total number of derived metrics / 10) + ROUNDUP(Total number of compound indicators / 10)
Important

Billing applies only to objects created and successfully submitted in the intelligent data modeling module.

Object type

Calculation rule

Object count

Logical models (including dimension tables, detail tables, aggregate tables, and application table models)

Excludes models in the ODS layer.

Counted individually

Each model counts as 1 object

Derived metrics

Counted in sets of 10. Any remainder counts as a full set.

Each set counts as 1 object

Compound indicators

Counted in sets of 10. Any remainder counts as a full set.

Each set counts as 1 object

For example, if you create and submit 15 logical models, 23 derived metrics, and 8 compound indicators, your total number of objects is calculated as follows: 15 + ROUNDUP(23/10) + ROUNDUP(8/10) = 19.
