The Basic service offering is based on the Pay As You Go allocation model in vCloud Director. It provides subscribers instant, committed capacity on demand through access to a shared management control plane in a multitenant service environment. Resource commitments for CPU (GHz), memory (GB), and storage (GB) are committed only when virtual machines or vApps are instantiated within the target organization virtual datacenter in vCloud Director. This service is designed for quick-start pilot projects and test and development application workloads that do not typically require persistent resource commitments or upfront resource reservations.
