Here is a step-by-step guide to configure pricing profiles using the Metered Resource Pricing setup wizard.

This blog post explains how Virtual Machine sizing-based pricing can be achieved using our Pricing Profile configuration, even though System Center sends Usage data of individual resources such CPU, RAM, Disk ...etc.

Usage and Billing Update 7 release enables key new scenarios and features such as configuring user level credits to support pre-paid plans, view usage by grouping subscriptions at the user level, support for custom formula for computing usage of metered resources, generating invoice PDF documents, and the *hot new* capability to implement custom usage collectors using C# extensions.

Does your business have Windows Azure Pack based private or hybrid Cloud deployed, but was limited by the set of Usage details captured by it for billing? Here is hot release with new feature additions to our 'Usage & Billing' solution, which enables simple C# code and Powershell script extensions to capture and inject custom Usage details into our Cloud Assert Billing pipeline, provide visibility in Windows Azure Pack Tenant Portal and leverage all the goodness of Cloud Assert Usage and Billing Solution.

Cloud Assert Usage and Billing pulls and aggregates data from Windows Azure Pack and System Center Usage data pipeline frequently in order to provide up-to-date metered resource / consumption based usage to end users.

This underlying usage pipeline has many moving parts and more often users are left with no usage data shown for System Center Virtual Machines. This post provides steps and tricks to troubleshoot and fix various components in the Windows Azure Pack, System Center and Operations Manager.

Usage and Billing solution for Windows Azure Pack is a platform for enterprises and service providers to address the need to provide a simple, straight forward Windows Azure Pack resource utilization across various services over time. Usage and Billing solution enables Windows Azure Pack administrators to configure pricing for more than 100+ resources, maintain multiple Pricing Profiles, integrate with billing systems and generate invoices automatically based on real usage from the end users.
