安装部署要点(README 精选)
Usage-based Pricing
The dynamic scheme for elastic resources.
-
Why I Love Usage-Based Pricing – “The most important reason I like this pricing model is that it heavily incentivizes both the customer and the service provider to act in everyone’s best interest.” Also details issues with other pricing models.
-
Use-cases for cloud services – The reason usage-based pricing makes even more sense for cloud services: to optimize ROI, keep all regular workload in traditional architecture and reserve cloud computing for elastic and experimental projects.
-
Socially Optimal Pricing of Cloud Computing Resources – “The socially optimal operating point is unique, and can be sustained by a linear, usage-based tariff, which charges a fixed price per unit resource and unit time.” This paper justify usage-based pricing for cloud resources.
-
A Survey of Profit Optimization Techniques for Cloud Providers – “The strategy of improving user service quality is discussed first, followed by the pricing strategy for cloud resources to maximize revenue.”
-
“Billing is not complex on purpose: it’s the price to pay for elasticity.” (source) – Or why you’re likely to get an endless stream of complaining users if choosing utility pricing scheme: while accurate to the (milli-)cent, this model is frustrating for customers not ready to invest time grasping the underlying concepts.
-
Riemann sum – The starting point about quantization of usage.
-
Allen’s interval algebra – Implementing usage-based pricing is tricky, and this algebra will help you organize temporal reasoning. Also see this Stack Overflow question with clean schema.
-
Reconcile Your Monthly GCP Invoice with BigQuery Billing Export – Behind the quest of this developer to track its expenses, you get a glimpse on cloud billing difficulties. While not explicitly pointed out, pricing cloud resources is hard and the result of quantization, granularity and rounding, between space, time and currencies.
-
AWS EC2 T2 Instances Demystified: Don’t Learn The Hard Way – An example of really tricky burstable instances which accrues and limits its own amount of CPU usage credits.
-
“Designing billing for a service can be really challenging” – Personal anecdote on the design of the pricing plan for AWS Simple Email Service.
-
Subscription-based pricing is dead: Smart SaaS companies are shifting to usage-based models – Usage-based pricing is more optimal and more fair: it “allows a customer to start at a low cost, minimizing friction to getting started while still preserving the ability to monetize a customer over time”.
-
Electropedia: Tariffs for electricity – Before the cloud, there was another metered resource priced by its usage: electricity. Here is a detailed (and multi-lingual) taxonomy of its vocabulary from the International Electrotechnical Commission.
-
Lago – Open-source metering & usage-based billing in Ruby.
-
CGRateS – An open-source, fast (50k+ CPS) and scalable (load-balancer + replication included) real-time billing for ISPs and Telecom Operators, written in Go.
