Does Pay-per-Use Billing Stop When My Cluster Stops?

No. The system settles the fees by hour for the pay-per-use mode. You can use the service as long as your account balance is sufficient. To reduce costs:

  • Delete the purchased clusters if you will not be needing them, and create new ones when needed.
  • Switch to the yearly/monthly mode that allows you to use the service within the specific period of time without additional fees.
