The Blockchain Analytics pricing model is encapsulated in the BigQuery
pricing model. Two pricing models are offered for running queries:
On-demand pricing:With this pricing model, you are charged for the
number of bytes processed by each query. The first 1 TB of query data
processed per month is free. For details, see:On-demand compute (analysis) pricing.
Flat-rate pricing:With this pricing model, you purchase slots, which are
virtual CPUs. When you buy slots, you are buying dedicated processing
capacity to run queries. For details, see:
SeeFlat-rate compute (analysis) pricing.
