Pricing
Pricing
FlexiScale has created a simple and flexible pay-as-you-go pricing model. There is no minimum term commitment or monthly subscription fee.
FlexiScale uses a units based currency to calculate the hourly prices for each required resource. Simply credit your account with the required number of units and use them on the computing resources you need, as you need them.
There is no need to over-buy capacity to handle periodic traffic “spikes” in your deployments, as FlexiScale uses elastic application-aware auto scaling to manage traffic spikes for you. Elastic application-aware auto scaling will automatically scale up and scale down your resources to cope with periodic traffic spikes and you only pay for the increased resources needed for the spike, on a per hour basis.
Reporting
FlexiScale has powerful reporting capabilities, which will allow you to generate separate billing reports for each Virtual Data Center for internal cost management.
Metering and Billing
Metering and billing is one of the areas where FlexiScale’s heritage as a hosting and service provider is evident. FlexiScale provides granular metering and billing of your cloud consumption. FlexiScale also supports multiple currency billing.
Control Panel
Control panel
FlexiScale has a powerful and flexible control panel which is simple to use and can be customised to meet your exact needs, allowing the ability to easily design, deploy and deliver anything from a single server to a complete system architecture within a few clicks.
Snapshots
FlexiScale easily allows you to move your deployment to anyone of our available global locations from within the control panel. It is as simple as taking a snapshot and redeploying it to another location within a few clicks.
Bento Boxes
Our Bento Box, application blueprints solution, contain all the key information to successfully build and deploy applications in the cloud, including server, software, storage, network, images and firewall details.
Provisioning & Scalability
FlexiScale is a multi-tier architecture which allows rapid deployment of on-demand services within minutes via our web-based control panel or using our API set. Simply use one of FlexiScale’s standard operating system images or use an OS image you have uploaded to provision a server.
FlexiScale is a fully automated platform, which allows you to instantly scale up or scale down compute, network or storage resources, as required. FlexiScale also has elastic application-aware auto scaling built into the platform, which automatically scales up your resources to cope with increased workloads.
