This calculation is based on a specification of 1 Core and 2 GiB of memory.
Consider 20 instances of 1 Core and 2 GiB running for 1 hour. The total CPU resource consumption would be 20 × 1 Core × 1 hour = 20 Core hours. The total memory resource consumption would be 20 × 2 GiB × 1 hour = 40 GiB hours.
- In a development environment, if running for 8 hours daily, the total daily resource consumption would be 160 Core hours and 320 GiB hours.
- In a production environment, if 40 instances of 1 Core and 2 GiB are used during a 2-hour peak period each day, and 20 instances are used during the 22-hour off-peak period, the daily resource consumption would be:
Total daily CPU resource consumption: 2 × 40 × 1 + 22 × 20 × 1 = 520 Core hours
Total daily memory resource consumption: 2 × 40 × 2 + 22 × 20 × 2 = 1040 GiB hours
Considering a 30-day month in both development and production environments, the resource consumption would be:
- Total monthly CPU resource consumption: (160 + 520) × 30 = 20400 Core hours
- Total monthly memory resource consumption: (320 + 1040) × 30 = 40800 GiB hours
After comparing the monthly quotas of various resource plans, this example suggests opting for the Professional Edition resource package (quarterly package). For more details on SAE resource plans, see Serverless Application Engine resource packages.
