Cost Model
- Organizations are billed based on the capacity allocated to their Virtual Data Centre.
- You can adjust your resources at any time by submitting a service request.
- Lowering the guaranteed resources allows for more virtual machines within the pre-allocated capacity, but it may impact the virtual machines' ability to access the resources you need.
- Charges are calculated and billed monthly.
