Billing Model	Explanation	Applicable Scenarios
Yearly/Monthly	Users pay a lump sum for the selected duration (month or year). The resource can be used continuously during this period.	Suitable for long-term stable needs, providing a more favorable price compared to on-demand billing, helping users save more money.
Pay-as-you-go	Billing is done by the hour, with charges deducted on an hourly basis. There is no minimum consumption requirement, and users can enable and delete resources anytime.	Ideal for scenarios with large fluctuations, unpredictable resource demand, or temporary, short-term testing. Recommended for short-term testing or business with varying resource needs.
