How do the credits work?

TedCronin

If I publish and create data does that take away credits? If a user consumes the data, I am sure that is a credit, but does that mean if the user leaves the website open all day, they use 1 credit, or is there a timeline, kinda confused on the credit system.

It's a somewhat vague answer, but see post #5 http://forums.arcgis.com/threads/59618-Using-ArcGIS-Online-as-the-host-for-map-services

Yep, that does sound pretty vague, thanks for the link. I will repost there as well.

Yeah good stuff.

Tile generation �?? 1 [service] credit per 1000 tiles generated

Looks like I can cache 1/16 th of my data once at one level.

I posted this on the other thread, but to me the most outrageous cost is the 2880 credits/yr for 1GB of storage for a feature service. So basically, you can upload 1GB of feature services and do nothing with them and it'll cost you over $2,500. Since when did storage get so expensive?

Well this is a new thing, I hope they can resolve the pricing accordingly. Also, seems like Advanced Server is a good deal. Perhaps they could have a couple of tiers. One for big business/government, one for middle size and 1 for a small entity. 1 size fits all does not make sense.
