Abstract
Examples described herein relate to consumption monitoring device and method for changing a client for its use of a networked resource. The consumption monitoring device may receive information regarding an out-of-band (OOB) performance parameter from a manageability controller corresponding to a networked resource subscribed by the client. The consumption monitoring device may determine a resource consumption metric corresponding to the networked resource for the client based at least on the information regarding the OOB performance parameter received from the manageability controller. The client may be charged based on the resource consumption metric.
