Description

Documents bandwidth allowances and overage billing (SC-559).

New page: SC Compute > Bandwidth (services/compute/bandwidth.mdx). It covers:

  • What is measured: outbound only. Inbound traffic and traffic between your computes are free.
  • Allowances: the allowance per specification.
  • The team pool:
    • a compute that exists for part of the month adds a prorated share;
    • stopped computes still count;
    • upsizing gives the bigger allowance for that whole month.
  • Price: 38 RWF per GB above the team allowance.
  • Charging: overage is charged daily, month to date, and appears on the invoice as "Extra Bandwidth Usage".
  • Where to see usage:
    • the team's Bandwidth tab, with each compute's usage in the Usage breakdown;
    • below each compute's Network chart.
  • A short FAQ.

Updated pages:

  • faqs/invoices.mdx: the Bandwidth section on invoices.
  • guides/computes.mdx: the Network chart (public and private traffic) and the monthly outbound usage below it.
  • services/compute/overview.mdx: a short Bandwidth section.
  • changelog.mdx: an entry.

The page has no dates or temporary pricing, so it shouldn't need updating later. mint broken-links passes.

Before merging:

  • Dashboard screens: the Bandwidth tab and the compute page's monthly usage should be live in the dashboard, since the docs point to them.
  • VAT: confirm whether 38 RWF/GB includes VAT, and add that to the Price section if so.
  • Changelog date: move it to the publish date.

Closes SC-559

Adds a Bandwidth page under SC Compute: what is measured, the allowance per specification,
how the team pool and proration work, the price per GB, how daily charges and the invoice line
work, and where to see usage. Links it from the compute overview, the invoices FAQ and the
monitoring guide, and adds a changelog entry.
A compute's monthly outbound usage now sits below its Network chart, which shows public and
private traffic, and the team view lists each compute's usage against its allowance under Usage
breakdown. Says that the live chart and the daily monthly figure can differ during the day.
