Hi Dani, If you have set max-idle-instances=1, then in that example, what would happen is:
(a) Instance is active 1 second every 5 minutes. (b) That is 288 active seconds for the day. (c) active-instances-rate is = 288/60*60*24 = 0.0033 for whole day (d) total-instances-rate = 1 for whole day (e) billable-instances-rate = min(active-instances-rate + max-idle-instances, total-instances-rate) = min(0.0033 + 1, 1) = 1 So the total billable instances for the day would be 24, which happens to also be the number of free instance hours given per day. The resulting bill would be $0.
