You can choose Billing Center > Bill Management to view the billing details of your Pulsar clusters. This helps you understand their usage and billing information during a specific period.
Bill Reporting Cycle
Yearly/monthly subscription clusters:
After you complete the payment for a yearly/monthly subscription cluster, the system reports a bill to Billing Center in real time for settlement.
If the configuration of a subsequent yearly/monthly subscription cluster changes, the system also reports a bill to Billing Center in real time.
Pay-as-you-go clusters:
After you purchase a pay-as-you-go cluster, the system allocates relevant cluster resources to you. Bills are generated on an hourly basis, regardless of whether you actually use the cluster and its resources.
Charges for pay-as-you-go clusters are calculated on an hourly basis, with usage under one hour billed as a full hour.
Fees are automatically deducted from your account balance on a daily basis. Specifically, the bill for each day's service usage is generated and pushed the next day, with the corresponding amount deducted from your account balance.
