How AccuWeb.Cloud calculates resources?<\/h2>\n

AccuWeb.Cloud uses a flexible resource unit called a Cloudlet to calculate cloud resources.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

What is a Cloudlet?<\/h2>\n

A cloudlet functions as a metric for compute power and RAM. One cloudlet corresponds to 128MiB of RAM and 200MHz of CPU.<\/p>\n

For example, if your instance necessitates 640 MiB of RAM and 1000 Mhz of CPU power (equivalent to 5 Cloudlets), 5 Cloudlets will be allocated to your instance.<\/p>\n

Additional computing capacity is introduced by increasing the number of cloudlets. When the surplus computing power is no longer required, these cloudlets are removed from your instance.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

How Usage is Measured<\/h3>\n

AccuWeb.Cloud uses dynamic resource scaling<\/b>, meaning your application doesn\u2019t pay for fixed resources – it pays for what it actually <\/i>uses. Here’s how it works:<\/p>\n

1. Real-Time Monitoring<\/h4>\n

Your container’s RAM and CPU usage<\/b> are monitored continuously.<\/p>\n

2. Scaling Up and Down<\/h4>\n

If your app demands more resources, the platform automatically allocates additional Cloudlets.<\/p>\n

When demand drops, unused Cloudlets are released, keeping your costs optimized.<\/p>\n

3. Billing Granularity<\/h4>\n

Cloudlets are billed in two types:<\/p>\n
