What is vCloud Usage Meter?

Leveraging the on-premises agent of vCloud Usage Meter in conjunction with the SaaS capabilities of vCloud Usage Insight facilitates efficient metering of licensing usage and automated report generation. Start by getting acquainted with both Usage Meter and Usage Insight, then download the latest version to kick off the setup process. Interact with the Automatic Reporting Service, which is crucial to the Cloud Provider Metering Architecture, and obtain the latest On-Premises agent to ensure effective collection and reporting of license usage. This configuration allows for hassle-free monthly report generation, optimizing the workflow from data collection to aggregation and reporting through the Commerce Portal. With the advent of Usage Meter 4.3, users can now manage larger environments within a unified deployment. Moreover, the new in-place upgrade feature eliminates the need to replace the on-premises agent with each update, providing greater convenience. Usage Insight acts as a central repository where users can access and download Usage reports, while VMware handles the storage of historical data, freeing partners from the responsibility of maintaining outdated appliances. This integrated approach not only simplifies the metering and reporting processes for users but also enhances overall operational efficiency, making it easier for organizations to manage their licensing needs effectively.

What is PortaAIM?

Built on PortaBilling's charging engine, PortaAIM adds an AI gateway to handle authorization, metering, and settlement for AI workloads as they happen. Before execution, the platform validates the customer, applies pricing rules, confirms available balance, and holds funds against the maximum possible cost. Once the request finishes, actual consumption — tokens, images, audio, tool calls, or other billable units — is recorded, the final amount is charged, and any surplus reservation is released. Commercial rules such as pricing, token allotments, credits, and bundles can be set up with no coding required, and reseller settlement runs through the same infrastructure. The platform automatically directs traffic to whichever capable model costs the least, gives operators a branded portal their customers can use for billing and payments, and maintains service across regions if one site fails. Integration options include full API and MCP connectivity, alongside guardrail configurations for governance standards like the EU AI Act. Customers can choose perpetual licensing or consumption-based payment, deploying on their own systems or through PortaOne's hosted environment — all backed by over 25 years of carrier-grade billing expertise across roughly 500 operators globally.
