Billing Rule
Pricing
Channel fee
Pay-as-you-go
The billing is based on the performance capacity unit (CU) converted from the actual business usage.
See the channel fee pricing.
Public network traffic fee
Main traffic billing
The billing is based on the statistics on the public network traffic generated by customer access in the acceleration region.
The list price varies depending on the acceleration region and access IP address type. See the public network traffic pricing.
Cross-region traffic fee
Main traffic billing
The billing is based on the statistics on the accelerated traffic from the acceleration region to the endpoint group region.
See the cross-region traffic pricing.

Channel Fee

CU is used to measure the performance metrics involved in the traffic processing of Global Accelerator, corresponding to the forwarder resource fee after the acceleration instance is created. The fee is based on actual business usage and is settled hourly.
Note:
Currently, Global Accelerator 2.0 only counts the number of CUs for traffic processing to charge fees. Other metrics are temporarily free.

Billing Logic

CU fee per hour = MAX [SUM(number of CUs for concurrent connections of each protocol), SUM(number of CUs for new connections of each protocol), SUM(number of CUs for processed traffic of each protocol), SUM(number of CUs for rule assessments of each protocol)] x CU unit price.

Public Network Traffic Fee

Public network traffic fee refers to the traffic fee generated when end users access Global Accelerator through acceleration regions and when Global Accelerator performs origin-pull to endpoints. The billing is based on the statistics on the main access traffic in each acceleration region per hour. The price of public network traffic fees varies in different regions. This section introduces the billing instructions for public network traffic fees.
