Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly

Updated on 2025-01-26 GMT+08:00

If you have a pay-per-use GeminiDB Cassandra instance that you expect to use for a long time, you can change it to yearly/monthly billing to reduce costs. Doing so will create an order. After you pay for the order, yearly/monthly billing will be applied immediately.

Suppose you bought a pay-per-use GeminiDB Cassandra instance at 15:29:16 on April 18, 2023 and changed it to yearly/monthly billing at 16:30:30 on the same day. After you paid for the order, yearly/monthly billing was applied immediately. On the Billing Center > Billing page, three line items were generated.

  • Pay-per-use expenditures for 15:29:16 to 16:00:00 on April 18, 2023
  • Pay-per-use expenditures for 16:00:00 to 16:30:30 on April 18, 2023
  • Yearly//monthly expenditure generated on April 18, 2023, 16:30:30

Constraints

Resources such as EIPs that are used by an instance may not support the change with this instance. For details about their billing mode change rules and handling methods, see Table 1.
