Billing and Guaranteed Commitments

Understanding Cloud Billing with Archera

Cloud billing refers to how customers are charged for using cloud services — whether directly through a cloud provider like AWS, Azure, GCP or via Archera. Archera helps manage and optimize cloud costs across these providers.

Archera's Monthly Premium Billing Model

Archera follows a straightforward Monthly Premium-Based Billing Model designed to be transparent and predictable.

How Our Billing Model Works

30-Day Consumption Period

Archera assesses your usage over a configurable 30-day term length. This includes all the services and consumption tracked during that period.

Invoicing the Following Month

Once the 30-day period concludes, Archera calculates the charges and issues an invoice in the following month. For example:

  • Your November usage will be assessed from November 1st to November 30th

  • The invoice for these November charges will be generated and sent in December

Why This Model?

This approach allows Archera to provide accurate billing based on actual consumption, ensuring you only pay for what you use within the defined period.

Key Benefits

  • Transparency: Charges are based on real consumption data

  • Flexibility: The 30-day term length ensures alignment with standard accounting practices

  • Simplicity: Predictable billing cycles make it easy to track and reconcile invoices

Archera's Pricing Structure

Archera's pricing depends on your chosen cloud provider and how services are consumed. Whether you're using AWS, Azure, or another provider, the billing integrates seamlessly with your cloud infrastructure.
