What each meter counts

How Easel maps traffic, functions, cache, builds, and security work to billed units.

Each meter counts one kind of work. Dashboard remaining values are base-region-equivalent: a request or gigabyte in a higher-priced region consumes more of the same allowance than the same work in iad.

Edge and delivery

  • Edge Requests: one count per completed response at the edge.
  • Edge Data Transfer: bytes sent from the edge to the client, billed per GB.
  • Origin Transfer: bytes fetched from origin into the edge (originBytesIn only). Response bytes from origin to the visitor are Edge Data Transfer, not Origin Transfer.

Functions

  • Function Requests: one count per logical function request. This is not an AWS Lambda invoke count. Concurrent or fluid execution can serve overlapping work without a 1:1 map to cloud invokes.
  • Function Duration: GB-hours from the billed duration and configured memory on the function report, once per underlying execution id.

See Function pricing.

Cache and images

  • Cache Read Units and Cache Write Units: ISR and Runtime Cache share these meters. Units are ceil(bytes / 8192). Zero-byte misses are 0 units.
  • Image Transformations: one transformation on cache MISS or STALE. Cache HIT is not billed. See Image Optimization pricing.

Builds and security

  • Build Execution: builder sandbox ready-to-delete time × configured vCPUs. Queue time and probe/baker sandboxes are excluded. Hobby and Pro include 100 Standard (2 vCPU) build minutes per month. Hobby stops at that grant. Pro continues from usage credits.
  • Rate Limiting: requests that entered a rate-limit path and were allowed. Requests that never hit a rate-limit rule are not counted. Blocked (429) requests are not counted as allowed.
  • WAF Inspected Requests and WAF Inspected Payload: requests and inspected request-body prefix on the WAF inspect path. Response bodies are not inspected for this meter.
