- Definition
- Asset Definition and QLU Calculation (CSPM): "QLU usage for Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM) is based on the total number of Cloud Compute Workloads monitored by CSPM."
- Counting rules
- Cloud Compute Workloads are virtual machines and serverless workloads on AWS, Azure, GCP and OCI. Weighting: 1 asset = 1 virtual machine; 1 asset = 100 serverless functions. Measured as the daily average over a rolling 90-day lookback. Storage, network, IAM and database resources are not counted. CDR uses the same weighting and method. The public QLU calculator lists 8 QLU per VM and 8 QLU per 100 serverless functions for CSPM and CDR.
- Floors / minimums
- Serverless functions counted in blocks of 100 (QLU calculator).
