Pricing principles
The Connected and Governed tiers both inherit the safety model. The Connected tier locks the dedicated MCP user to read-only by default; the Governed tier lets the platform team upgrade specific roles to mutating with explicit audit trails — but never by default.Frequently asked
Why is the local tier free?
Why is the local tier free?
The local workbench has no commercial relationship with the customer
Equinix tenant. It only writes to disk. There’s nothing for us to
bill against, and the value of letting a developer evaluate the
package shape before committing is high.
What does the Connected tier actually pay for?
What does the Connected tier actually pay for?
Three things: (1) the dedicated MCP user identity Equinix provisions
in the customer tenant; (2) the trace retention and audit log
infrastructure; (3) the live
pricing.md sync that pulls real
pricing records from Equinix’s commercial systems.Is mutating access an extra add-on?
Is mutating access an extra add-on?
No. The Connected tier supports mutating MCP calls from day one — but
only after the five readiness gates
pass. The blocker is policy, not licensing.
What's an Equinix account in pricing terms?
What's an Equinix account in pricing terms?
One Equinix Customer ID. A single CID may have many projects, metros,
and developer apps; the Connected tier covers all of them under one
flat fee.
