Metrics & Plans

Define what to measure and how to charge for it.

Before you can charge customers for usage, you need to define two things: what you’re measuring and how you’re pricing it. This section covers metrics — the signal definitions that tell ABAXUS how to aggregate raw events — and price plans, the versioned configurations that translate usage totals into line items on an invoice. Getting these right up front gives you a billing model that’s easy to evolve without breaking existing customers.
