Q:
Charges for bandwidth
Bandwidth, Bandwidth limits, Bandwidth management, Bandwidth monitoring, Bandwidth testing
Does it make sense for a data center to charge for the bandwidth that is used over a 30 day period? Doesn't it make more sense to look at how much is used at any one time?

nth percential charging for bandwidth is the standard way that all CoLos charge. This gives everyone a fare charge on the bandwidth. If they charged by the highest peak, and your normal bandwidth is 3Mb, but you have a 1 minute spike to 98Mb should you really be charged for the full 98Mb. This could be several thousand dollars for 1 minute of usage.
