Billing & Quotas

Resource Quotas (Limits)

To ensure platform stability and protect users from accidental runway costs, every tenant is subject to resource limits based on their active subscription plan. Before any resource is created (like a new cluster or deploying a workload), the Quota Engine verifies you have sufficient capacity.

Note: If you reach your limit, API and CLI requests will fail with a quota.exceeded error. You must upgrade your plan in the billing dashboard to unlock higher capacity.

How Usage is Calculated (Shared vs BYOC)

Vyntech Cloud supports two modes of deployment, which determine how you are billed:

• 1.Shared Clusters (Vyntech Pricing): Workloads run on our managed infrastructure. You are billed hourly by Vyntech based strictly on the resources (CPU, Memory, Storage) your workload requests.
• 2.BYOC / Bring Your Own Cluster (DigitalOcean, AWS, etc): If you connect your own DigitalOcean or AWS account, you pay the cloud provider directly for the underlying servers (e.g., DigitalOcean Droplet pricing). Vyntech does not charge you hourly resource fees for workloads running on BYOC.

Shared Cluster Base Rates

For Shared Clusters, Vyntech charges the following base rates (calculated per hour, billed monthly):

Cost Examples (Scenarios)

Because you pay exactly for what you request, here are some common deployment scenarios and their estimated costs:

The Hourly Worker

Every hour, a background worker scans all active, healthy workloads. It calculates the exact cost incurred during that hour using the following formula (tracked internally in micro-cents to prevent rounding errors):

Minimum Charges

• 1-Hour Minimum: All resources are calculated with a strict 1-hour minimum. You are billed for exactly the resources requested for a full hour, eliminating arbitrary flat-fee minimums (like a rigid $0.01 floor).
• Termination Rule: When you delete or scale down a workload, a final usage record is generated immediately. Even if the workload ran for just 5 minutes, you are billed for exactly 1 full hour of usage for those resources.

Invoicing & Credits

All hourly usage records are aggregated into a single monthly invoice per tenant.

• •Monthly Generation: On the 1st of every month, our invoice worker aggregates the previous month's usage, applies a flat 10% tax rate, and generates an invoice due in 10 days.
• •Crypto Credits (AzPays): If you use AzPays to top-up your account with cryptocurrency, these credits are deducted in real-time as hourly usage is collected. Your end-of-month invoice will only reflect the remaining unpaid balance (if any).

Real-World Billing Scenarios
