Public Cloud Experience Plan¶
Difference Between Experience Plan and Commercial Plan¶
The experience versplanion and Commercial Plan provided by the public cloud all adopt the billing method of pay-per-use.
There are limitations on the amount of data that can be accessed in the Experience Plan. After upgrading to Commercial Plan, a larger amount of data can be accessed, and the data storage time can be customized more flexibly.
Instructions for Using Experience Plan
- There is no charge if the Experience Plan is not upgraded. Once upgraded to the Commercial Plan, it cannot be refunded;
- If the Experience Plan is upgraded to the Commercial Plan, the collected data will continue to be reported to the observation cloud workspace, but the data collected during the Experience Plan will not be viewed;
- The upgraded Commercial Plan only supports the current workspace owner to view and operate;
- Timeseries and backup log statistics are full data, and other billing items are incremental data; Incremental data statistics reset the free quota at 0 o'clock every day, which is valid on the same day;
- If the data quota is fully used for different billing items in the Experience Plan, the data will stop being reported and updated; Infrastructure and event data still support reporting updates, and you can still see infrastructure list data and event data.
- The experience workspace does not support the use of Snapshot Sharing function because of data content security issues.
