FC Agent Sandbox Plan Features by Tier-Function Compute(FC)-阿里云帮助中心

Multi-tier Subscription Plans: Target Customers & Scenarios

Plan	Target Customers	Typical Scenarios	Compute Stability & Performance
Eco	AI Startups、 Individual Developers	Agent Exploration & Functional Testing： Single-step debugging, Tool Use chain verification, low-frequency asynchronous long-running tasks.	Lowest Barrier to Entry： Cost-effective choice; allows for minor compute fluctuations.
Std(Recommended)	Mid-market Enterprises AI SaaS Providers	Enterprise Copilots & Productivity Tools： Daily office assistants, data analysis (Code Interpreter), document parsing & format conversion. Large-scale Offline Sampling & Parallel Training： Cost-effective for high-volume tasks; tolerates second-level cold starts; provides massive low-cost sandboxes.	Balanced & General-purpose： Stable performance with low-latency response; suitable for enterprise-grade production workloads.
Pro(Recommended)	Top-tier AI Application Enterprises, MaaS/Agent Platforms	High-concurrency C-side Agent Apps： Multi-agent collaboration, code execution for massive concurrent users, and heavy complex computations. Large-scale Online RL Simulation： Instant provisioning of massive sandbox environments; supports ultra-low latency, high concurrency, and high-throughput RL environment sampling & simulation.	Elastic High Throughput： Supports million-level sandbox concurrency with ultra-low latency. Ideal for high-concurrency Agent code execution and large-scale distributed high-throughput RL sampling.

Notes：
1.Deep Hibernation Resume Efficiency under High Concurrency: Refers to the total time required to restore Deep Hibernation instances and rebuild network connections in a high-concurrency scenario (10,000+ concurrent requests) with a 2C4G instance specification.
2.Deep Hibernation: Comparable to E2B's Pause/Resume functionality. The maximum lifetime for an active (unpaused) sandbox is 24 hours for Eco/Std plans and 7 days for the Pro plan. The timer automatically resets upon pausing, granting the full duration again upon resumption.By cycling through "pause-resume-pause-resume," the sandbox's online duration can be continuously extended.
3.Light Hibernation: Exclusive to the Pro plan. Leveraging request-awareness and memory snapshot technologies, instances automatically enter shallow sleep when idle (CPU usage < 0.01 core / Network traffic < 1,000 Bytes/s / No incoming requests) to reduce costs (No vCPU charges are incurred during shallow sleep; memory and disk storage continue to be billed according to standard rates). Instances are woken up ultra-fast within 1 ms upon receiving new requests.

Feature differences across subscription plans will continue to evolve. Stay tuned!

Subscription Plan Pricing

For more details, please refer to the Pay-as-you-go documentation.

Subscription Plan Management

Purchase & Billing：No activation required; billed on a pay-as-you-go basis. Set the subscription plan when creating or managing a Team, with options for Eco, Std, or Pro tiers.
Activation Mechanism: Subscription plan attributes are inherited from the Team level downwards. All Templates and Sandboxes under the current Team automatically synchronize with these plan attributes, ensuring global consistency.
Changes & Management:

Upgrade: Supports one-way seamless upgrades (Eco → Std → Pro), which can be performed directly in the Team settings.
Downgrade: To prevent service disruption caused by feature reduction for existing workloads, online downgrades are currently not supported. If you need to downgrade, please create a new Team or contact technical support (DingTalk Group: 179855020297).
