- flat fee for a L Mbps link
Also known as 'fractional' or 'tiered.' $x for y mb/s, and it is rate-limited.
- volume based, y $ per Mbps (95% quantile) for a L Mbps link - burstable, flat fee for x Mbps on a L Mbps and z $ per Mbps above x
These two are essentially the same. You do have three variations of usage-based, however: a) vth percentile: $x per y zzzbits/sec, with a t committment. Occasionally, any usage over t has a different price. b) 'Average usage', which is is the same as A, but using an averaging measurement system, rather than a percentile system (50th percentile is NOT the same as, or even relevant to, average). c) counting bytes: $x per y bytes. -- Alex Rubenstein, AR97, K2AHR, alex () nac net, latency, Al Reuben -- -- Net Access Corporation, 800-NET-ME-36, http://www.nac.net --
