| 15 | +Overview |
| 16 | +-------- |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +|charts-short| on |service| is metered based on the volume of data |
| 19 | +transferred from the |charts-short| web server to web browser clients. |
| 20 | +MongoDB provides each |charts-short| instance with a free ``1 GB`` of |
| 21 | +data transfers per month. You can view your |charts-short| instance's |
| 22 | +monthly data usage in the :ref:`Admin Settings <admin-usage>` page. |
| 23 | + |
| 24 | +The free usage tier provides approximately 500,000 chart |
| 25 | +renders over a month. However, this number may vary based on the types |
| 26 | +of charts being rendered. A number chart or a bar chart with few bars |
| 27 | +typically consumes less data, while a scatter chart with many |
| 28 | +data points or a large table could consume more. |
| 29 | + |
| 30 | +Once the ``1 GB`` of free data usage has been consumed, MongoDB bills |
| 31 | +Charts data transfers at a fixed rate of **$1.00 per GB**. |
| 32 | + |
| 33 | +In addition, any applicable |service| data transfer fees apply, as per |
| 34 | +the :guilabel:`Data Transfer Fees` section of the |
| 35 | +`Atlas Pricing <https://www.mongodb.com/cloud/atlas/pricing>`__ page. |
| 36 | +|charts-short| is hosted on |aws| ``us-east-1`` region, and |
| 37 | +uses this region to calculate the fees. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +Sample Pricing Scenarios |
| 40 | +------------------------ |
| 41 | + |
| 42 | +The following examples show the expected monthly charge for different |
| 43 | +usage scenarios. Consider: |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | +1. A |charts-short| instance with 5 users, each of whom refreshes a |
| 46 | + 10-chart :ref:`dashboard <dashboards>` once an hour during business |
| 47 | + hours. This results in about 8,000 renders over |
| 48 | + the month, and easily falls within the ``1 GB`` free tier. |
| 49 | + |
| 50 | + | |
| 51 | + |
| 52 | +2. A dashboard on a large-screen display with 20 charts set to refresh |
| 53 | + every 5 minutes, all 24 hours of the day. This results in about |
| 54 | + 300,000 renders over the month. Assuming these charts are not |
| 55 | + abnormally large, this scenario also falls entirely within the |
| 56 | + ``1 GB`` free tier. |
| 57 | + |
| 58 | + | |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +3. A *large* chart embedded on a web page that receives 10,000 views |
| 61 | + per day, resulting in 300,000 renders over the month. This chart |
| 62 | + takes roughly five times as much data to render compared to a |
| 63 | + typical chart, and consumes ``3 GB`` of data over the month. |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | + The first ``1 GB`` is free, and the remaining ``2 GB`` is billed at |
| 66 | + $1.00 per GB, resulting in a total cost of $2.00 for the month. |
