Amazon SimpleDB

Amazon SimpleDB: "In the response message for each request, Amazon SimpleDB returns a field called Box Usage. Box Usage is the measure of machine resources consumed by each request. It does not include bandwidth or storage. Box usage is reported as the portion of a machine hour used to complete a particular request. The cost of an individual request is Box Usage (expressed in hours) * $0.14 per Amazon SimpleDB Machine hour. The cost of all your requests is the sum of Box Usage (expressed in hours) * $0.14.

For example, if over the course of a month, the sum of the Box Usage for your requests uses the equivalent of one 1.7 GHz Xeon processor for 9 hours, your charge will be:

9 hours * $0.14 per Amazon SimpleDB Machine hour = $1.26."
