Pay-per-Use to Yearly/Monthly
If you have a pay-per-use CCE cluster or node that you expect to use for a long time, you can change it to yearly/monthly billing to reduce costs. Doing so will create an order. After you pay for the order, yearly/monthly billing will be applied immediately.
Suppose you purchased a pay-per-use cluster at 15:29:16 on April 18, 2023 and changed it to yearly/monthly billing at 16:30:30 on the same day. An order was created. After you paid for the order, yearly/monthly billing was applied immediately. In Billing Center, on the Billing page, three line items were generated as follows:
- Pay-per-use expenditures for 15:29:16 to 16:00:00 on April 18, 2023
- Pay-per-use expenditures for 16:00:00 to 16:30:30 on April 18, 2023
- A single, yearly/monthly expenditure generated on April 18, 2023, 16:30:30
Notes and Constraints
- To change the billing mode of a node in a pay-per-use node pool to yearly/monthly, you need to upgrade the cluster to v1.19.16-r40, v1.21.11-r0, v1.23.0-r0, v1.25.4-r0, or later.
- After a node in a pay-per-use node pool is changed to a yearly/monthly node, the node does not support elastic scale-in.
