Enterprise Distributed Application Service (EDAS) charges based on the number of application instances -- the instances on which your applications run.
Billing methods
EDAS supports two billing methods:
| Billing method | How charges are calculated |
|---|---|
| Subscription | Pay upfront for a resource plan that covers a set number of application instances. Instances beyond the plan are billed in pay-as-you-go mode. |
| Pay-as-you-go | Billed daily based on the peak number of application instances running that day. |
Subscription
You purchase a resource plan that covers a set number of application instances. If your usage exceeds the resource plan during any billing period, the additional instances are charged in pay-as-you-go mode.
Pay-as-you-go
Each day, EDAS records the peak number of application instances running at any point. Your daily charge is based on this peak count.
Note
Restarting a pod or an ECS instance does not count as an additional instance. The same application instance is not billed twice due to a restart.
