Definition
“Billable Nodes” means, with respect to a Platinum Subscription, a number that is the greater of: (a) the number of Nodes running across a Project covered by the Subscription; or (b) the total GB of RAM Addressable by all Nodes across a Project covered by the Subscription, divided by 64, with any fractional remainder being rounded up to the next whole number. Nodes deployed in a Non-production Environment are not counted as Billable Nodes. (Software Subscription Agreement §1)
Counting rules
Count per Project (a specific customer use case with Nodes deployed as a logical grouping). Take the greater of the Node count and Addressable RAM / 64 (rounded up). Exclude Nodes in development, staging or quality assurance environments.
Floors / minimums
No minimum published. The Platinum tier is no longer available to new customers (subscriptions page note 18).
