Examples

A customer uses two shards to read data from and write data to Simple Log Service each day. The read and write traffic is 100 GB per day, the index traffic is 400 GB per day, and the storage space occupied by log data is 10,000 GB per day. The following tables describe billing details.

Billable item

Description

Read and write traffic

The fee of the read and write traffic is USD 4.5. Formula: 100 GB × USD 0.045/GB = USD 4.5.

Index traffic of log data

The fee of the index traffic is USD 35. Formula: 400 GB × USD 0.0875/GB = USD 35.

Storage space occupied by log data

The fee of the occupied storage space is USD 28.75. Formula: 10,000 GB × USD 0.002875/GB/day = USD 28.75.

Active shards

The fee of the active shards is USD 0.02. Formula: 2 shards × USD 0.01 = USD 0.02.

Note

If you set Shards to 2 when you create a Logstore, two shards are rented each day. The monthly fee of the two shards is equal to the fees of 60 shards in 30 days.

Important

The actual prices of resource plans in the Simple Log Service console shall prevail.

Monthly fee

Monthly fee = (USD 4.5 + USD 35 + USD 28.75 + USD 0.02) × 30 days = USD 2,048.1

Note

Select an appropriate resource plan based on the monthly fee. In this example, we recommend that you purchase five 1-year subscription resource plans: two with 1,000 CUs per month and three with 20 CUs per month.

You can purchase five 1-year subscription resource plans: two with 1,000 CUs per month and three with 20 CUs per month. The monthly fee is calculated by using the following formula:

Monthly fee = 2 × USD 8,520/12 months + 3 × USD 180/12 months = USD 1,465

If you purchase 1-year subscription resource plans, you can reduce costs by USD 583.1 per month. Formula: USD 2,048.1 - USD 1,465 = USD 583.1.

Yearly fee

Yearly fee = (USD 4.5 + USD 35 + USD 28.75 + USD 0.02) × 30 days × 12 months = USD 24,577.2

You can purchase five 1-year subscription resource plans: two with 1,000 CUs per month and three with 20 CUs per month. The yearly fee is calculated by using the following formula:

Yearly fee = 2 × USD 8,520 + 3 × USD 180 = USD 17,580

If you purchase 1-year subscription resource plans, you can reduce costs by USD 6997.2 per year. Formula: USD 24,577.2 - USD 17,580 = USD 6,997.2.
