Introduction

Billing Data Service (BDS) operates as a CronJob, which runs once a day, consisting of a sequence of steps that collect various data from sources -- such as Genesys Info Mart, GVP RS, and Configuration -- and transforms that data into usage statistics that track your consumption of Genesys services, which is used for billing purposes. Files are securely transferred to Genesys back-office using SFTP.

Autoscaling is not supported.

For information about the overall architecture of Genesys Multicloud CX private edition, see the high-level Architecture page.

See also High availability and disaster recovery for information about high availability/disaster recovery architecture.

Egress means the Billing Data Service service is the source, and Ingress means the Billing Data Service service is the destination.
