FAQ
An Host is a physical or virtual operating system instance that is sending observability signals including k8s metrics - a host is considered active if it has sent observability signals in the last 15 minutes. Billable host hours is the total number of host hours measured during the month. Note: By billing based on host hours, customers don’t have to pay for their peak (i.e. 99th percentile) host usage but rather the actual host hours consumed during the billing month.
Host Hours based pricing is only applicable for customers that are using the Kubernetes Monitoring product offering in Grafana Cloud.

FAQ
An Host is a physical or virtual operating system instance that is sending observability signals including traces and span metrics - a host is considered active if it has sent observability signals in the last 15 minutes. Billable host hours is the total number of host hours measured during the month.
Note: By billing based on host hours, customers don’t have to pay for their peak (i.e. 99th percentile) host usage but rather the actual host hours consumed during the billing month.
Host Hours based pricing is only applicable for customers that are using the Application Observability product offering in Grafana Cloud.

A “session” is defined as the time that a user is spending in a frontend application on and off from start to finish or timeout. A user session is either created or resumed when a user visits and uses the site. A user session ends after a maximum lifetime of 4 hours or after inactivity timeout of 15 minutes. The SDK will automatically create a new user session in any of these situations, if the user returns.

FAQ
A test execution is a Synthetic test running in a probe location per minute of run time. Example: A synthetic test running in 5 locations that takes 1.5 minutes to complete will consume 10 executions each time it runs.
To estimate the number of test executions per month, you will need the following inputs:
- Number of Locations (Probes)
- Number of Targets (Tests)
- Duration of Test (rounded to the nearest minute)
- Frequency of Tests (in Minutes)
probes x tests x duration x (43,200 / frequency)

MultiHTTP checks are like HTTP checks but you can test multiple URLs in a single check to validate multi-step user flows. k6 scripted checks are like MultiHTTP checks, but you can write the checks in code instead of via a form-based approach.
To estimate the number of test executions per month, you will need the following inputs:
- Number of Locations (Probes)
- Number of Targets (Tests)
- Duration of Test (rounded to the nearest minute)
- Frequency of Tests (in Minutes)
# of locations (probes) X number of targets (tests) X duration of test (rounded up to the nearest minute) X [43,200 total minutes in a month / frequency of tests in minutes)

FAQ
VUh is calculated by using the following formula:
(Maximum number of VUs x test execution duration in minutes) / 60 minutes = VUh
If your test ramps up to a maximum of 100 VUs and runs for 10 minutes, the test run will use 16.67 VUh ((100 VUs x 10 minutes)/60 = 16.67 VUh).
Note that VU hours are calculated based on the period that the test run executes, not the preconfigured test duration. If the test duration is 2 or more hours but runs for only 30.01 minutes, then the subscription will be charged for the test-execution period rounded up to the next minute (in this case, 31 minutes).
The minimum for a test is 1 VUh. Find additional details here.
