* Aria Allegro features will begin rolling out with Release 67. For details on specific feature availability and timelines, please contact your account representative.

** Usage records are metered at the point of ingestion by Aria Allegro, and can represent service usage data in many formats, including those sourced from files or API events. Service usage refers to any measurable customer activity or consumption of a service – such as data transfer, API calls, minutes used, subscription entitlements consumed, feature activations, or event-driven interactions – that can be spliced (if fragmented), aggregated, analyzed and/or quantified for billing, rating, charging or analytics.
