MAS Manage SaaS - Pay per use/consumption/volume based pricing

In today's times, to be competitive and for fair pricing reasons, MAS Manage when offered as SaaS needs pay per use or volume based pricing.

Imagine two customers -

Customer 1 having 100,00,000 work orders and 1 TB of attachments

Customer 2 having 10,000 work orders and 10 GB of attachments.

As underlying AWS infrastructure cost for Customer 1 is higher, billing needs to take this volume into account in addition to User based pricing.

Also, it may include additional compute cost used to ingest such a high number of work orders beyond permissible limit in a given time period dictated by given SaaS tier.

Attaching pricing models of Watson Discovery - Enterprise and Plus plan.

    This is under consideration for future. There are application changes as well as understanding the pricing implications since some customers do not want a variable monthly price based on consumption, but rather a fixed.
