Description

Scenarios

Subscription is mainly applicable to the following business scenarios:

  • Long-term stable use: When you expect to use the product for a long time and the demand is relatively stable, the subscription model can provide a more cost-effective solution. For example, long-term running Spark Streaming tasks, or services like Kyuubi and Livy that require long-term deployment.

  • Clear budget planning: For users with clear budget planning, the prepaid model can help you better control costs and avoid cost uncertainty caused by usage fluctuations.

Billing rules

The total price of a single workspace subscription quota is: Number of computing resources CU × Unit price of computing resources × Subscription duration.

Important

The subscription duration in the formula is measured in months. The specific settlement fee is subject to the final bill.

For example, in the Singapore region, the unit price of computing resources is 32.21 USD/CU/month. If the subscription quota of the workspace is 100 CU and the subscription duration is 6 months, the subscription quota fee for the current workspace is 100 CU × 32.21 USD/CU/month × 6 months = 19326 USD.

Billing cycle

The billing cycle of the workspace subscription quota is based on the duration you purchased (in UTC+8 time). The start of a billing cycle is the time when the workspace is activated or renewed (accurate to the second), and the end is midnight (00:00:00) on the day after the expiration date.

Renewal policy

If you want to continue using the subscription quota after the current billing cycle expires, you can renew it. For more renewal details, see Renewal policy.

Note
  • If you fail to renew in time, tasks submitted to the subscription fee type queue in the workspace will stop running. To avoid affecting your business, please renew in time.

  • If your account has overdue payments, auto-renewal will be affected. Please recharge in time and renew manually.

Refund policy

The subscription quota requires prepayment of related fees based on the subscription duration at the time of purchase. If you no longer use the subscription quota due to business changes, you can unsubscribe through fees and costs. For details, see Refund policy.

Resource scale-out

After purchasing the subscription quota, you can increase the resource quota according to business needs to achieve resource expansion. For details, see Edit subscription quota.
