Abstract
A method and system for dynamic pricing of web services utilization. According to one embodiment, a method may include dynamically predicting utilization of a web services computing resource that is expected to occur during a given interval of time, and dependent upon the dynamically predicted utilization, setting a price associated with utilization of the web services computing resource occurring during the given interval of time. The method may further include providing the price to a customer.
Claims21
A method, comprising:
- dynamically predicting utilization of a web services computing resource that is expected to occur during a given interval of time;
- dependent upon said dynamically predicted utilization, setting a price associated with utilization of said web services computing resource occurring during said given interval of time;
- and
- providing said price to a customer.
A computer-accessible medium comprising program instructions, wherein the program instructions are executable to:
- dynamically predict utilization of a web services computing resource that is expected to occur during a given interval of time;
- dependent upon said dynamically predicted utilization, set a price associated with utilization of said web services computing resource occurring during said given interval of time;
- and
- provide said price to a customer.
