Pricing FAQ
What is the App instance-hour and how is it calculated?
The Extend app instance is the instance that serves incoming requests. For example, a game developer creates an Extend app named job-progression
. To service 1,000 requests per second, the Extend app needs to scale up to 10 instances. If it goes down to 500 requests per second, the job-progression
Extend app scales down to five instances.
Extend app instance-hour is calculated based on how many hours the Extend app instance runs. For example, if there are 5 Extend app instances running for two hours, your bill will be 5 Extend app instances x 2 hours x $0.198 = $1.98.
What is the billing granularity for the Extend app instance?
There is a one-hour minimum charge per app instance. Your hosted Extend usage is calculated by the hour from the time an instance is launched until it's terminated or stopped.
What determines my consumption of the Extend app instance?
Consumption depends on the specific implementation of Extend and the frequency of requests made to the Extend app. Extend will do horizontal auto-scale to support increasing player count.
Pricing for Extend services is subject to change during the open beta phase. We are continuously refining our pricing structure to ensure it meets your needs.
