Understand your usage

Usage within a CelerData cloud account is measured in CelerData Cloud Units (CCUs). CCUs are consumed only when CelerData clusters are running.

NOTE

• Only the organization root account can access the usage and billing information of the organization and each account under it, and can view and manage payments.
• Accounts with the Account admin role can access only the usage information of their own accounts. They cannot access the billing information or manage payments.

How usage is measured

The CCU usage of your account is measured by the total CCU usage of all clusters hosted in your account.

The CCU usage of a cluster is calculated as follows:

[(FE node count * FE consumption rate) + (BE node count * BE consumption rate)] * Total uptime of the cluster

The cluster uptime is measured in hours.

The consumption rates indicate the CCU consumption per hour for nodes of different types and instance sizes.
