[1] http://wiki.openstack.org/EfficientMetering If fully second Emilien's suggestions. As a quick note, I'd like to level set your expectation as Ceilometer is metering tool, not a full billing tool. A full billing solution needs 3 components: - Metering: to know what has happened on the cloud - Rating: which transforms what has happened into price to bill (line items) - Billing: which accumulates line items and create a bill to send to customer and collect money Which means that you will still need component 2 and 3 to do billing after you have deployed Ceilometer. Hope this helps. Nick On Thu, Aug 30, 2012 at 12:21 PM, Rajesh Avula avula.rajes...@gmail.com mailto:avula.rajes...@gmail.com wrote: Greetings...!!
