When a third-party engine transfers data using MaxCompute Open Storage, you can use either exclusive resource groups for Data Transmission Service (subscription) or pay-as-you-go Open Storage resources. If you use pay-as-you-go resources, MaxCompute charges you based on the logical size of the data that is read or written. The billing details are as follows:
