The price for each resource unit depends on the chosen hosting provider and can be estimated on a monthly, daily or hourly base within dev panel. Cloud hosting expenses can be tracked and optimized using built-in billing details for whole account or specific application.

There are two types of licensing - for installation with further self-administering and for installation with managed services. Partnerships with service providers is built on a franchise model with revenue sharing.
