The tone of the email was a bit strange for a $960 a year increase suggesting we optimise but not yet providing what the cost increases are from. I appreciate we will get the updated usage metrics later in the month but it makes it slightly hard to explain to management why costs are increasing.

Most of our increases I assume will be the data cache pricing and the only real way to optimise that is to move data fetching out of data cache and use our own cheaper caching layer.

Hey, I'm on the Vercel team. You're right that we will have visibility for these pricing changes in the dashboard, but I'm happy to work with you on this before then. If you're already using ISR, one easy optimization today is to revisit how frequently you are writing (e.g. if it's every 3 seconds, is that necessary?) and potentially explore moving to the on-demand version of ISR.

It’s a e-commerce style site with ISR. Product pages are cached for 24h with pricing fetched on the client to save the revalidate. I think I worked out what the price increase is though and it’s the edge network £2.40 (London) per million requests. From what I can tell most requests are bots and scrapers so it might not be too easy reduce. The pricing actually seems quite high when compared to other CDNs but I might have misunderstood it.
