Alibaba Cloud DNS:Pricing

Last Updated:Apr 28, 2024

This topic describes the billing methods, billable items, and pricing of Public DNS.

Billing method

Public DNS supports only the pay-as-you-go billing method.

Billable item

Public DNS is billed based on the number of HTTP-based resolutions.

A resolution that uses DNS over TLS (DoT) or DNS over HTTPS (DoH) is counted as five HTTP-based resolutions.

Billing cycle

  1. Public DNS generates daily bills.

  2. On the first day of each month, Public DNS provides a free quota of 10 million HTTP-based resolutions. After you use up the free monthly quota, you are charged for excess resolutions.

  3. The free quota is provided on a monthly basis. The remaining quota from the previous month does not roll over.
