I am not sure what type of traffic my new app will have, but I want to make sure I am ready to handle a significant amount if need be. I read that Bitnami/AWS deployment is pay as you go. How does that work? Obviously I will be paying for the AWS instances through Amazon, but how does pricing work for Backendless in this scenario?
There are two options for deploying Backendless Pro in AWS:
Launch your own EC2 instance, run the Backendless Pro installer on it. In this case, you would need to purchase a license for Backendless Pro. You can request a trial license at:
https://backendless.com/products/pro/license-request/
Use Backendless Pro AWS listing (should be available within a week or so). In this case, a license is not required and Backendless Pro is available with the pay-per-use model. It will have its own hourly charge (depends on the instance type) which will in in addition to the EC2 hourly charges for the instance.
