Hourly Billing.
Under Consideration
I'd really like hourly billing for packages. E.g Someone sets 0.07$/hour and every hour it would take that amount from the account. This would be really helpful for VPS (For example) packages and wouldn't be too hard to implement.
Thanks.
It would be great if we could have something like BUT with the following options included...
Provided those are taken cared and probably a different order form to accommodate "loading" of account to boost it should be a neat idea!
I think more details would be necessary. Is there a company that does hourly billing that you think would be a good use-case?
This is my understanding of how hourly billing typically works, please comment & clarify.
Suspension rules, minimum deposit, and other rules to prevent an account from provisioning too much and getting in debt are all good ideas.
Some have suggested deducting from credit on a daily or even hourly basis. Does anyone do this currently?
@Paul,
generally this is how billing is done in the cloud, for instance AWS: https://aws.amazon.com/. It's actually a characteristics of cloud computing.
Cloud tenants are billed using pay-as-you-go modelled. For instance you are not billed for the time your VM is turned off in the cloud :)
As mentioned above, this is needed when using Proxmox or similar to offer "cloud" services such VM, VPS, storage etc.
Why is this request still Under Consideration?
Google Cloud charges you per second for the most flexibility possible. This feature is very important! It's already difficult enough to compete with AWS and alike.
Please implement it
