Resource packages provide specific amounts of resources with specific specifications and validity periods and can be purchased in advance. Resource packages contain various resources, including but not limited to storage capacity, traffic, and number of requests. You can use resource packages only on Pay-As-You-Go instances. The unit price of resource packages is generally lower than that of Pay-As-You-Go instances.

Available resource packages
KS3 resource packages
Currently, available KS3 resource packages include standard storage packages and downstream traffic packages. Downstream traffic packages can be used only to deduct downstream traffic of KS3 over the Internet, instead of the CDN back-to-origin traffic.
- Both standard storage packages and downstream traffic packages can be used in non-financial data centers in China.
- The resource volume of a standard storage package or downstream traffic package that you purchase is updated once every month. For example, if you purchase a 100 GB resource package with the validity period of three months on January 10, the total resource volume available for use is 100 GB by the end of February 9. The resource volume is restored to 100 GB on February 10 and March 10. Unused resources in the current month will not be retained in the next month.
- You can purchase only one KS3 resource package of a specific type in the same data center, but you can upgrade or renew the resource package. If the resource package expires, you can purchase another resource package.
SMS resource packages
- You can purchase multiple SMS resource packages, but you cannot renew or upgrade the packages.
- The validity period of SMS resource packages is 12 months.
