GIGS: The complete guide

When you activate a plan, you enable a certain amount of GIGs for use in Skyone Studio.

GIGs are a consumption metric that takes into account two factors during the execution of a flow: execution time and data usage.

In other words, the amount of GIGs consumed during a flow run depends on how long the flow takes to execute and the volume of data processed. The faster the execution, the lower the GIG consumption. On the other hand, the higher the volume of data transferred, the greater the GIG consumption.

Example:

In a given flow, we have the following scenario:

• 1 GB of data transferred used 1 GIG.

• 1 day of execution time used 1 GIG.

Therefore, by adding the execution time and data consumption, the total GIGS consumption in this example is 2 GIGS.

How to track GIGS consumption

You can monitor your GIGS consumption in the following ways:

• Dashboard: Right after logging in, you’ll see a summary of your workspace usage, including data consumption.

• Monitoring: In the monitoring area, at the top of the dashboard, you can track your workspace's GIGS usage. Additionally, you can view a graph showing daily GIGS consumption for the selected period. Learn more in the "Monitoring" article.

• Usage and Billing: Under "Usage and Billing," you can view the total GIGS consumed by your workspace. For more details, read the "Usage and Billing" article.

GIGS Usage Alert

You can set up alerts for your workspace's GIGS consumption. In "Notifications", you can activate an alert when 50% of your GIGS package is used or customize the amount. Alerts can be sent via email or SMS. Read more in the "Notifications" article.

Additional GIGS

With the "Additional GIGS" feature, you can configure the use of extra GIGS when your plan runs out. This ensures that your flow will continue operating while you acquire a new plan. Read more in the "Editing a Workspace" article.

Sharing GIGS Between Workspaces

If you have multiple workspaces and want to share GIGS between them, you'll need to create an organization. Learn more in the "Creating an Organization" article.

When you create an organization, the GIGS from all added workspaces are combined and centrally managed. Read more in the "Organization Management" article.
