Advantages

The pricing model for DGC
The DGC service employs a transparent pricing model based on two primary usages:
- Data integration: DGC offers flexibility in data integration management by providing a choice of three CDM instance sizes (Cloud Data Migration). Larger CDM instances deliver enhanced performance. Usage is billed hourly until the instance is deleted, with reduced pricing available for stopped CDM instances (stopping initiated solely through the API).
- Data development: to streamline workflows, data development, and Operations & Maintenance (O&M), users can initiate a data development instance (Starter). Usage is billed on an hourly basis until the instance is deleted.
