Table 2 Value-added package description

Scenario

Description

Purchase

The standard and professional editions provide a value-added package (including large screen, intelligent analysis, and security orchestration) at extra cost. To use these functions, purchase the standard or professional edition first.

Billing

Value-added packages are billed separately. There is no impact on the service edition and ECS quota you have purchased.

Free quotas

A certain free quota is offered for intelligent analysis and security orchestration in the value-added package.

  • Intelligent analysis: 60 MB/ECS/day for the standard edition and 120 MB/ECS/day for the professional edition
  • Security orchestration: 500 times/ECS/day for the standard edition and 10,000 times/ECS/day for the professional edition

If the free quotas cannot meet your business needs, you can enable corresponding functions in the value-added packages separately.

Use

There are some restrictions when using yearly/monthly intelligent analysis and security orchestration.

  • Intelligent Analysis: You are billed for the actual intelligent analysis log volume you have. If the quota for intelligent analysis is used up, this function becomes unavailable on that day, but it turns to be available at 00:00 the next day.
  • Security orchestration: You are charged based on the times the orchestration playbooks are executed. If the quota for security orchestration is used up, this function becomes unavailable on that day, but it turns to be available at 00:00 the next day.

For example, if you purchase intelligent analysis of 1 GB/day for one month and use 1 GB before 22:00 on the purchase day, intelligent analysis will become unavailable between 22:00 and 24:00 on that day.
