Hosts are instances where the Retrace Agent has been installed. This includes self-hosted Windows or Linux VMs, containers, AWS/Azure hosted architectures, etc. that populate as a server in Retrace.

Host hours are the metered units for how billing is calculated. If an account has 5 servers reporting usage 24/7 during the whole billing cycle, host hours would be calculated as 3,600 (24 hours x 30 days x 5 hosts). For more complex pricing calculations, please contact [email protected] .

Retrace Lite licensing offers unified and value-based pricing by allowing users to configure environments tagged as Production or Non Production.

Where a normal host hour counts towards a full host hour, Retrace Lite hours consume only one third of a host hour (see the section below on the distinction between host hours and Retrace Lite hours).

For example, if an account uses a combination of 1,000 normal host hours and 1,500 Retrace Lite hours, then a total of 1,500 Retrace host hours would be calculated for only one-third of the value (1,000+1,500/3).

A normal host hour is defined as hourly APM usage coming from hosts belonging to environments tagged as Production. These hosts are running the monitoring agent with the profiler enabled.

A Retrace Lite hour is usage coming from hosts belonging to Non Production Environments or from hosts sending in errors and logs without an agent installed. An agent is not required to send in errors or logs.

Follow this documentation to learn the distinction between Production and Non Production features and how to tag your environments as a Production environment.

Each tier has a base allotment of host hours included in the billing period. If the number of hours used has exceeded the base amount of the tier, the overage amount will be billed on a metered basis at the specified host hour rate.

If your usage often exceeds the allocated host hours in the tier, we recommend upgrading to the next tier to take advantage of larger volume discounts. You can easily upgrade within Retrace by going to Subscription Overview >> Manage Subscription within the solution or by contacting [email protected].
