Pricing for Hosting Providers

MySQL Partner Program

Pricing for the Hosting program enables partners to select the flexible business model that works best for them. There are two pricing options to choose from - A per-server (variable) pricing model, or Enterprise License Agreement (ELA). The advantage of the ELA is the elimination of auditing/accounting of how many servers are in production. Above breakeven point, ELAs also provide additional savings compared to the variable model.

Pricing is further differentiated depending on the level of services offered to end users: Hosting partners receive services corresponding to a modified MySQL Enterprise subscription, ranging from Basic’s email support to Platinum’s 24x7, 15 minute response time (see Q&A for more information).

Further details on the pricing structure are set out in the following grids:
