Consumption-Based Model
Learn about Digibee’s licensing model based on consumption.
This documentation is exclusive to customers using the Consumption-Based Model and may not be applicable to your realm.
Overview
The Consumption based is a licensing model of the Digibee Integration Platform in which pricing is based on the consumption of metrics related to the pipeline executions, GB-s, and egress traffic.
How does it work?
You purchase credits according to your needs and each metric consumes a different amount of credits during the committed contracted period of time. You will be able to track your credit usage within the Platform to effectively monitor and manage the use and consumption.
Consumption is valid for all environments.
Understanding the Consumption metrics
GB-Seconds (gigabytes.seconds or GB-s): Represents the lifespan of a pipeline instance (replicas) multiplied by its memory size in GB. For example:
Small: 0,0625 GB | 64 MB | 10 threads | 20% CPU
Medium: 0,125 GB | 128 MB | 20 threads | 40% CPU
Large: 0,25 GB | 256 MB | 40 threads | 80% CPU
Number of pipeline executions: Represents the total number of executions of a pipeline.
Number of Egress Traffic bytes: Represents all data traffic that leaves the Digibee Integration Platform, whether to the public internet, to another cloud, or to a local network.
Calculation used in the Consumption based model
Check out the example below to understand how the Consumption based model billing calculations work.
Example: 1,000 executions in 1 small pipeline replica running for 1 hour, consuming 1GB of egress traffic.
GB-s: 0.0625 GB * 3600s = 225 GB-s * 0.0008 = $ 0.18
Executions: 1,000 * 0.000008 = $0.008
Egress Traffic: 1GB * 0.50 = $0.50
Total = GB-s + Executions + Egress Traffic = $ 0.688
Overage
If you use more credits than you initially purchased in your commit, your pipelines will continue to execute, but with an overage rate card for all consumption metrics.
Consumption based model on the Platform
How to access your data
Click on Settings in the upper right corner on the Platform home page.
In the Licensing menu, click Consumption.
The consumption page on the Digibee Platform is divided into two tabs: Usage and Credits.
Usage
Displays information based on consumption cycles and allows you to filter data by period.
A summary dashboard showing month to date usage in the active period: Show cards with total amount spent in the selected period, spend variation, and total cycle spend. The time periods are divided by month and you can select the period you want to display the data.
A Download CSV button: To download your consumption reports in CSV format directly from the Platform. The time period of the exported data is the same as that selected in the active period filter.
A usage cost composition chart: Show annual consumption by period, allowing you to group data by projects, pipelines, or environments. The chart can be displayed in column format, line format and area format.
A month to date breakdown table: The table shows data from the current month to the current date, which can be grouped by projects, pipelines, and environments. The categories are name, environment, usage in GB.s and its respective value, usage in executions and its respective value and cost value.
Credits
Reflects the customer's contract, showing contracted amounts, overage and value history.
A summary dashboard of your credits: Show contract duration, total balance, standard rate spend, overage rate spend and credit consumption progress.
A Download CSV button: Select the time period to download your consumption reports in CSV format directly from the Platform.
Credit history: Show past and future credit entries with name, status, start and end date, contract amount and total spent.
Pricing details: Show the standard and overage unit price for the Consumption Based model metrics established in the contract: Egress traffic, GBs and Executions.
