Offering customers a variety of ways to pay for your product allows for flexibility and ease. In general, there are two ways for customers to pay for usage: Post-paid and pre-paid.

This can cause headaches for these users and can also cause issues for the service provider.
Many API developers and companies struggle to find ways to easily set up systems to monetize their APIs. Some are simple but not customizable, some are complex and require massive engineering effort to actually get it all running. To make things easier, Moesif created a feature a few months ago called Billing Meters which gives massive customizability but with a minimal amount of code and engineering effort.

As such, we introduced a new way to handle this scenario (as shown below) for the notification based password recovery flow.
In this article, you will learn about some of the tools to test microservices running in a Kubernetes cluster. In particular, we will compare the Speedscale CLI tool with other tools and the main benefits of using Speedscale CLI. In the last few years, software companies have been shifting from building monolith applications to utilizing smaller microservices. In a microservices architecture, you operate with decentralized applications. This means that there's a separation in which each service is responsible for a specific component of your application.
