Billing cloudstack
Hi,
For the folks running and billing their own Cloudstacks, what do you
use? Looking for a nice self-service solution (billing perspective).
We run Ubersmith for other things, but it's not great with Cloudstack.
I noticed HostBill has a module for it. Any opinions on this?
Other ideas welcome, thanks!
Lucian

Hi
Cloudstack have limitation of Create Plan , and Limit by Data Transfer .
Hostbill version of Cloudstack working fine, but the MeterBilling Of data
transfer only bill end of month. It wont stop the VM if data transfer over
the limit.
Also , we do not know the data transfer that specific VM consume,
only after end of month billing generated.

Hey Lucian,
We built CloudMC for this (and other reasons). It supports billing in a
multi-level multi-tenant environment, such as resellers. It handles the
consumption, pricing and metering, but doesn't hook into an invoicing
system (currently) as we have found that every customer has a
unique invoicing system. CloudMC is in production, delivering cloud
products for a few different telcos, some of which are based on CloudStack.
If you would like more information, I can help set that up, but here is a
link for now: https://www.cloudmc.cloudops.com/
Cheers,
