Billing

Billing Items

The following table lists the DataArts Studio billing modes.

Pay attention to the following aspects when purchasing a DataArts Migration incremental package:

• If you buy a pay-per-use incremental package, the system automatically creates a CDM cluster based on the specifications you select.
• If you buy a yearly/monthly incremental package, the system will not automatically create a CDM cluster. If you only have this package, the quota in the package will not be deducted because no CDM cluster exists.
• If you want to enjoy the preferential price of the yearly/monthly incremental package, you can buy a yearly/monthly incremental package and then buy a pay-per-use incremental package which is in the same region and has the same specifications as the yearly/monthly incremental package.
• If you buy a pay-per-use incremental package and then buy a yearly/monthly incremental package which is in the same region and has the same specifications as the pay-per-use incremental package, you will be billed in pay-per-use mode first, and then in yearly/monthly mode.

Billing Mode

• DataArts Studio basic package

  The DataArts Studio basic package is billed on a monthly/yearly basis. You can select a DataArts Studio basic package based on your service requirements and pay for the package based on the subscription duration. The minimum subscription duration is one month.

• DataArts Studio incremental package
  • Pay per use: Incremental package is billed every hour based on the actual usage duration.
  • Yearly/Monthly: You can select a DataArts Studio incremental package based on your service requirements and pay for the package based on the subscription duration. The minimum subscription duration is one month.

Changing Specifications

DataArts Studio provides multiple specifications in its basic or incremental package. You can select a specification when you buy a package. You can also change the specifications after buying a package in the following ways:

• DataArts Studio basic package upgrade: You can upgrade the basic package. During the upgrade, you will be billed daily. After the upgrade is complete, you will be billed based on the new package.

  To upgrade a package, log in to the DataArts Studio console, locate the target DataArts Studio instance, click Upgrade, and buy a package with higher specifications.

  After the package is upgraded, the system creates a DataArts Migration cluster. The DataArts Migration cluster in the original basic package will be reserved, but you will not be billed for it. You must manually migrate data connections and jobs from the original CDM cluster to the new one. For details, see Batch Job Management.

If these methods do not meet your requirements, you can subscribe to a new DataArts Studio basic or incremental package.

Renewal

• DataArts Studio basic package

  DataArts Studio basic packages are billed in yearly/monthly mode. When a package expires, there will be a grace period and a retention period (see Expiration and Overdue Payment for details). You are advised to renew the package before it expires.

  The DataArts Studio basic package supports automatic renewal. The default renewal period is as follows:

  • Your package will be renewed each month for monthly billing.
  • Your package will be renewed each year for yearly billing.

  You can enable automatic renewal in either of the following ways:

  • Log in to the management console. On the page for buying DataArts Studio instances, select Auto-renew.
  • Go to the Renewals page, select the DataArts Studio instance to be renewed in the list, click Enable Auto-Renew, and do as prompted.
• DataArts Studio incremental package
  • Pay-per-use DataArts Studio incremental package

    Pay-per-use billing is calculated by hour. If your account is in arrears, the grace period and retention period will start in sequence (see Expiration and Overdue Payment for details). Top up your account to ensure sufficient account balance.

  • Yearly/Monthly DataArts Studio incremental package

    When a yearly/monthly DataArts Studio incremental package expires, its billing mode will automatically change to pay-per-use. If you want to continue to use the package, buy it again before it expires.

Expiration and Overdue Payment

• DataArts Studio basic package

  DataArts Studio basic packages are billed in yearly/monthly mode. When a package expires, it enters a grace period. During this period, you can access and use DataArts Studio, and the billing is normal. You need to extend the package duration in the grace period. Otherwise, the package will enter the retention period.

  During the retention period, data will be retained, but you cannot access the DataArts Studio instance, perform operations on the DataArts Studio console, or call related APIs. If you do not have sufficient balance in your account or do not renew the resource package before the retention period expires, DataArts Studio will become unavailable and data stored in DataArts Studio will be deleted and cannot be recovered.

• DataArts Studio incremental package
  • Pay-per-use DataArts Studio incremental package

    Pay-per-use billing is calculated by hour. You can use packages as long as your account balance is sufficient. If your account balance is insufficient to pay the fees for the previous hour, the DataArts Studio incremental package will enter the grace period. During this period, you can access and use the DataArts Studio incremental package, and resources in this grace period are still charged. You need to top up your account within the grace period. Otherwise, the package will enter the retention period.

    During the retention period, data is retained, but you cannot access the DataArts Studio incremental package, perform related operations, or call APIs. If you do not have sufficient balance in your account or do not renew the resource package before the retention period expires, DataArts Studio will become unavailable and data stored in DataArts Studio will be deleted and cannot be recovered.

  • Yearly/Monthly DataArts Studio incremental package

    When the validity period of a package ends, the package's billing mode will automatically change to pay-per-use.

Unsubscription

• DataArts Studio basic package

  During the validity period of a yearly/monthly DataArts Studio basic package, you can unsubscribe from the package by referring to Unsubscriptions.

  After unsubscribing from DataArts Studio, you must unsubscribe from the resources of the following services that may incur fees:

  • OBS: During batch data migration or data development, DataArts Studio may write dirty data or logs to OBS, which incurs data storage fees.
  • EIP: If you use an EIP for your DataArts Migration cluster or DataArts DataService Exclusive cluster, you need to pay for the EIP.
  • SMN: If you enable SMN notifications for your DataArts Studio modules, you need to pay for the notifications.
  • DEW: If you enable KMS when creating a link in DataArts Migration or creating a connection in Management Center, you will be billed for key management.
• DataArts Studio incremental package
  • Pay-per-use DataArts Studio incremental package

    After a DataArts Migration cluster is deleted, the pay-per-use DataArts Migration incremental package will no longer incur fees.

  • Yearly/Monthly DataArts Studio incremental package

    After deleting a DataArts Migration cluster or DataArts DataService Exclusive cluster, you must unsubscribe from the corresponding package by referring to Unsubscriptions.
