On which parameter is the NetApp Cloud Insights pricing model based?

The NetApp Cloud Insights pricing model is based on the number of metrics that are ingested. This pricing structure aligns with how cloud monitoring services often charge for usage, focusing on the volume of data processed. By measuring costs based on metrics ingestion, Cloud Insights can calibrate pricing according to the scale and complexity of an organization's cloud environments. Each metric represents a specific aspect of performance or health within cloud services or storage infrastructures, and the more metrics ingested, the more comprehensive the monitoring and insights provided.

This pricing model is advantageous for organizations because it allows them to pay based on their unique operational needs, optimizing costs related to monitoring and analytics. The number of metrics provides a clear and quantifiable measure to gauge usage and can adjust according to the volume of services being monitored, ensuring that customers only pay for what they utilize.
