Deduction
At 00:00 every day, the billing system starts to calculate the number of instances that were run on the previous calendar day and deducts a fee based on only one of the pricing tiers that are specified in the preceding billing standards. No additional fee is generated.
Assume that you configure two sync nodes named Node A and Node B in your DataWorks workspace in the China (Shanghai) region and use shared resources to run these nodes. If you set the number of concurrent threads for Node A to 2 and schedule it to run by day, the system generates one instance every day. If you set the number of concurrent threads for Node B to 5 and schedule it to run by hour, the system generates 24 instances every day.
- The total number of concurrent threads per day is calculated based on the following
formula:
2 × 1 + 5 × 24 = 122
. - The number of concurrent threads per day is 122, which falls in the range of 11 to 500. Based on the price that corresponds to this range, you are charged a daily fee of USD 0.15.
Overdue payments
- If your bill is overdue for more than 360 hours, the service will be suspended. At this time, instances that have not been run cannot be started, but instances that have been started can run until they are finished.
- If you add funds to your Alibaba Cloud account within 360 hours after your bill becomes overdue, the service will not be suspended.
