OAC pricing question

Question

Content

Hi Everyone,

Apologies for posting pricing/billing question on a technical forum. I'm hoping to get some clarity about the pay as you go monthly pricing model for Oracle Analytics Cloud. I can use the price estimator tool to spit up a number based on hourly usage and license type, but one thing I'm not clear about is the minimum number of users required to access the OAC service?

I know it used to be a minimum of #20 users and I'm not sure if that is still the case? I'm currently using an always-free account for personal use and I'm thinking of upgrading to a paid account to experiment with some of the paid services and OAC is one them.

Thanks in advance for your responses.

Thanks,

Omar

Hi guys,

Just a quick question : we were thinking of implementing standalone OAC in companies that do not have Fusion. How much would it cost ?

Hi Omar.

Hope I'm not to late on this.

In OCI you can check how much OAC is consuming and set thresholds and alerts to monitor its consumption.

If the service is active you may still be charge even if no one is using (a minimum, I noticed based on my experience).

I think there is a way to configure an automatic stop and resume/start using OCI APIs when you are not using it but I didn't follow up, to be honest.

This may help.

Monitor Your Billing Data
