Billing Examples

Billing Scenario

At 15:30:00 on March 18, 2023, a user purchased a one-month HSS enterprise edition ($13.8 USD/quota/month) to protect a server.

At 9:00:00 on March 20, 2023, the user upgrades the enterprise edition to premium ($27.8 USD/quota/month).

So how much will the user be billed for this HSS in March and April?

Billing Analysis

The premium edition is $27.8 USD/quota/month, and the enterprise edition is $13.8 USD/quota/month, so you need to pay the difference in price. The price difference will be calculated as follows:

Specification upgrade fee = New specification price × Remaining period - Old specification price × Remaining period

The remaining period is the remaining days of each calendar month divided by the maximum number of days in each calendar month. In this example, Remaining period = 11 (Remaining days in March)/31 (Maximum number of days in March) + 18 (Remaining days in April)/30 (Maximum number of days in April) = 0.9548. Cost of upgrade = $27.8 USD x 0.9548 - $13.8 USD x 0.9548 = $13.3672 USD

The prices in this section are just examples. The actual prices are those displayed on HSS Pricing Details.
