Shared Data Package Overview

Shared data package provides a quota for data usage. Such packages are cost-effective and easy to use. Shared data packages take effect immediately after your purchase. If you have subscribed to pay-per-use EIPs using bandwidth billed by traffic in a region and buy a shared data package in the same region, the EIPs will use the shared data package. After the package quota is used up or the package expires, the EIPs will continue to be billed on a pay-per-use basis.

  • Two types of packages are available: dynamic BGP and static BGP. The dynamic BGP data packages can be used by dynamic BGP EIPs, and the static BGP data packages can be used by static BGP EIPs.
  • Shared data packages can be purchased yearly or monthly. Packages purchased for a year are more cost effective. You can purchase multiple shared data packages. The data package with the shortest validity period will be used first.

Notes and Constraints

  • A shared data package cannot be unsubscribed.
  • By default, a shared data package takes effect for all pay-per-use EIPs using bandwidth billed by traffic. A shared data package cannot take effect for specific EIPs or for shared bandwidths.
