Pricing: we fixed it for you!
A huge concern for on-demand serverless systems is the fear of a surprise runaway bill. You get promised “only pay for what you use”, but what happens when something goes wrong? Maybe your website suffers a DDoS attack. Or maybe you accidentally DDoS yourself with a recursive function! Maybe it isn’t even a negative event that drives traffic, and instead you have an unexpected influx of new customers. A huge part of choosing your cloud vendor is trust — and all this uncertainty undermines that trust.
With Begin, you can rest easy knowing we prioritize transparency and fairness in our pricing. If your software exceeds the anticipated service limits, we will immediately inform you and collaborate with you to find a resolution. You won’t have to worry about being left with a huge bill or having your services unexpectedly shut down.
Traffic spikes should not mean surprise runaway bills!
Rest assured: with us, they won’t. We’ll contact you and make a plan!
