Number of vCPUs of the Huawei Cloud cluster:

40 vCPUs x 30 minutes/60 minutes + 60 vCPUs x 30 minutes/60 minutes = 50 vCPUs

Number of vCPUs of the on-premises cluster:

10 vCPUs x 30 minutes/60 minutes + 30 vCPUs x 30 minutes/60 minutes = 20 vCPUs

Huawei Cloud cluster:

0.01

On-premises cluster:

0.03

Huawei Cloud cluster:

50 vCPUs x 1 hour x $0.01 USD = $0.5 USD

On-premises cluster:

20 vCPUs x 1 hour x $0.03 USD = $0.6 USD

The UCS price is $1.1 USD (0.5 + 0.6).
