Abstract
According to some embodiments, methods and systems may be associated with a cloud computing environment having a plurality of integration tenants. An independent usage measurement component (e.g., a microservice or module) may periodically calculate measurable meter units for a particular integration tenant of the cloud computing environment. Examples of measurable meter units include a static analysis of integration artifacts, outbound calls from components, message bandwidth, a number of messages, a static count of integration content connections, etc. A central cloud performance metering service may receive the calculated measurable meter units from the independent usage measurement component and arrange for billing data to be generated based on the calculated measurable meter units in connection with creation of a plurality of components resulting in implementation of an integration service for the particular integration tenant.
