As an example, we will look at the metric Content Requests. The figure below shows the actual usage and the reserved capacity. The actual usage exceeds the reserved capacity in month 3. The reserved capacity is 900 000 whereas the actual traffic is 1 150 000 content requests (exceeded by 250.000 requests). This will render an invoice for an additional unit of traffic for that month.
Example with a internal microsite (one unit of additional reserved capacity)
Company B buys an internal microsite (CDN-200–INT) accessible to the complete company using their Microsoft Entra SSO. They also purchase one traffic unit. The reserved capacity included in each package is added to form a total reserved capacity.
