Billing

Billing Items

DIS is billed based on the record quantity and partition hour.

Table 1 DIS billing

Billing Item

Description

Record quantity

Number of records uploaded to a DIS stream. Downloads do not affect this total. A single record cannot exceed 25 KB. If you upload data of larger than 25 KB, the system considers it more than one record.

NOTE:

Common DIS streams are billed based on both the record quantity and partition hour, while advanced DIS streams are billed only based on the partition hour.

Partition hour

Duration of using a partition. It starts from the time when the DIS partition was created. A common stream and advanced stream are billed differently based on the partition hour.

Billing Modes

DIS provides two billing modes: pay-per-use and yearly/monthly. Pay-per-use is recommended if you are unsure of your future service needs and want to avoid paying for unused resources. However, if you are sure of your needs, yearly/monthly will be less expensive.

  • Pay-per-use

    Pay-per-use billing is the default setting for DIS. With this billing mode, your service account is only billed for the amount of time (hours) resources actually used for. There is no minimum billing threshold.
