The pricing of Oracle Integration Cloud is based on the data which is transferred to and from from the Oracle Cloud Services.
The data is measured in Message Packs.
The message pack metric means that pricing will be based on a certain amount of messages transferred per hour .
1 Message Pack = 5000 Messages
Aย Messageย isย definedย asย upย toย 50KBย (Kilobytes)ย ofย in-and-out transmission from/to theย Oracleย Cloudย Service.
Definition of a Message and MessagePacks
- Aย message also called as billingย messageย (M,ย forย simplicity)ย inย OICย isย definedย asย data transfer upย toย 50KB
- Anyย messagesย overย 50KBย inย sizeย mustย beย countedย asย multipleย messages,ย withย eachย 50KB orย portionย there ofย countingย asย equivalentย toย oneย messageย (e.g.,ย 320KBwouldย beย countedย asย 7ย messages)
- Theย messagesย areย soldย inย incrementsย (orย โpacksโ)ย ofย 5,000ย perย hourย
Oracle Integration Cloud Pricing based on Message packs
Oracle integration cloud pricing depends on the message pack transfer.
Theย definitionย ofย aย messageย forย OICย canย beย foundย onย theย OICย pricingย pageย asย wellย theย Oracleย PaaSย andย Iaasย Universalย Creditsย Serviceย Descriptionsย document.
This message pack metric means you pay a certain amount per hour based on the amount of message packs your environment needs to process all requests.
Oracle Integration Cloud Service โ Standard Allows 5K Messages per hour
Oracle Integration Cloud Service โ Standard โ BYOL Allows 20K Messages per hour
โIn-and-Outย Transmissionโย Messagesย
OICย onlyย countsย anย in-boundย messageย toย theย cloudย serviceย asย billingย message,ย
Theseย include:ย
- Theย initiatingย requestย messageย toย aย service.ย
- Theย responseย messageย intoย OICย fromย callsย madeย toย otherย servicesย (overย theย 50KBย limit)
So
- Ifย anย inboundย initiatingย messageย isย greaterย thanย 50KB,ย theย numberย ofย ย messagesย (M)ย consumedย isย the inboundย messageย sizeย dividedย byย 50KB,ย andย rounded up
- Whenย theย integrationย makesย callsย toย otherย servicesย asย partย ofย orchestrationย orย enrichment, theย first 50KB of the reply message( that is the message that is entering OIC ) is free.
