ApsaraDB for Memcache supports the pay-as-you-go and subscription billing methods. You can select a billing method based on your business requirements. This topic describes how to create an ApsaraDB for Memcache instance.
Usage notes
You are charged for an instance immediately after the instance is created, regardless of whether the instance is used. We recommend that you create an instance when the instance is required. This helps you avoid unnecessary costs.
Procedure
Log on to the ApsaraDB for Memcache console. In the upper-left corner of the Instances page, click Create Instance.
Create a pay-as-you-go or subscri tion instance. By default, the Product Type is set to Subscription. You can configure the parameters such as Region and Zone, VPC, vSwitch, Kernel Version, Resource Group, and Duration.
NoteApsaraDB for Memcache allows intranet access only. We recommend that the instance you create resides in the same region as your Elastic Compute Service (ECS) instance. If you want to create a pay-as-you-go instance, click the Pay-As-You-Go tab to configure the parameters that are similar to those for a subscription instance.
After you configure the parameters, click Buy Now. On the Confirm Order page, confirm the order and click Pay.
On the page that appears, select a payment method, and click Subscribe.
After you complete the payment, a message indicating the creation is successful is displayed. In this case, the instance is created.
