An Aggregation links to a Meter and targets a Data Field or Derived Field on the Meter. You define the method of aggregation used to convert the usage data collected by the targeted Meter field into a numerical unit of measurement. You can then use the unit of measurement an Aggregation yields as a metric for pricing Product Plans and apply usage-based pricing to your products and services. You might also want to aggregate raw data measures for other purposes, such as to feed into analytical or business performance tools.

Notes

• Contrast with Compound Aggregations. Standard or simple Aggregations of this type, which apply an aggregation method directly to Meter usage data fields, are contrasted with Compound Aggregations. A Compound Aggregation typically references one or more simple Aggregations and applies a calculation to them to derive pricing metrics needed to serve more complex usage-based pricing scenarios.
• Segmented Aggregations. Segmented Aggregations allow you to segment the usage data collected by a single Meter. This capability is very useful for implementing some pricing and billing use cases. See Segmented Aggregations in our main documentation for more details.
