Different editions provide different functions.

Yearly/Monthly and pay-per-use

Pay-per-use

Billing resources include the professional edition and extended package (added EIPs, added peak traffic protection capacity, and added VPCs). Your subscription is one month and you manually renew the subscription for another month before the subscription expires. The billing details are as follows:
