Overview

StreamLink services are managed at the flow level in the StreamLink console. Each flow may include multiple transfer connections with different input and output regions. You can quickly and stably transfer media using StreamLink and comprehensively monitor the stream quality in the console. The billable items of StreamLink are as follows:

Transfer

Pricing

In StreamLink, a connection is a transfer between each input region and output region of a flow. The system calculates the peak bandwidth of each active connection in a day and add them up. The transfer fee for each flow is calculated separately. If you configure failover, when the system calculates the transfer fee, the primary connection and backup connection will be considered one connection.

Billing example

Assume that on January 1, 2023, you created two flows (flow A and flow B) and added a connection (an input and an output) for each of them. The connection of flow A reached a peak bandwidth of 10 Mbps at noon, and the connection of flow B reached a peak bandwidth of 10 Mbps at 22:00 PM. On January 2, 2023, the following transfer fee would be billed:
7.6923 (USD/Mbps/day) x 20 (Mbps) = 153.846 USD

Device Running

Pricing

Device running fees are charged for each input and output based on the task duration.

Note：

• If a flow has one input and three outputs, the device running cost will quadruple.
• The device running cost is calculated separately for the primary and backup flow.
• Task duration is calculated by the hour (rounded to the next hour). Fees are billed daily.

Billing example

Assume that you created a task with one input and two outputs on January 1, 2023. The task lasted for six hours. On January 2, 2023, the following device running fee would be billed:

3 (number of inputs and outputs) x 6 (hours) x 0.25 (USD/hour) = 4.5 USD

Relaying Traffic

Pricing

Relaying traffic fees will be incurred if you use StreamLink to relay streams to a third-party service. The fees are charged based on the outbound traffic. The price varies with the outbound region.

Note：

For nodes outside the above listed regions, the pricing for "Others" applies.
