Hi,
there were many different statements about the instance based billing
which were not clear to everyone. We've asked proppy in the IRC
channel to get us some clarification about the rules that apply to
instance based billing. We formulated some assertions and he forwarded
them to the product managers. I think you are all interested in them:
- In the dashboard instance chart "Active Instances" represent the
instances currently active serving traffic for this application
- In the dashboard instance chart "Total Instances" represent all
instances currently started for this application
- The visual difference between the 2 represent "Idle Instances", i.e:
the settings developers can control using Performance settings
- Developers will be billed for ("Active Instances" + Max "Idle
Instances") and not "Total Instances"
All those assertions are "true". Especially the last one should cut
the costs for most of the app engine users.
