3.2. A sample calculation of billing for Image BackupΒΆ

Usage Rate:
Customer will be billed for their End User’s usage rate on a monthly basis. Billing date shall be the start date the backup takes place (not finishes). For example, Customer begins a backup on the 20th of each month. Customer will pay for Customer’s backup usage up-front in the month the backup begins, even though the retention period may or may not carry over into the following month. Please refer to tables below for greater detail on this billing methodology.
The time zone used for the billing purposes is UTC Western Calendar

Billing Examples:
Monthly backup with 31 days retention period:

Monthly backup with 62 days retention period:

*PriceA is the price per unit for Backup Usage, Price B is the price per unit for backup transfer.

Transferred Rate:
Customer will be billed for their End User’s action of backup and restore. In the diagram “Monthly backup with 62 days retention period” above, 1 VM with 100GB of data is backup once in January. This would equal to 100GB of transferred data.
If the Customer would like to restore that VM during the same month, it would add 100GB of transferred data to be charged to the end user.
