Here are some common pricing metrics and considerations for Oracle Integration Cloud:

1. Pay-As-You-Go Model: Oracle Integration Cloud often follows a pay-as-you-go pricing model, where you are billed based on your actual usage of the platform’s services and resources. This can include factors such as the number of transactions, data volume processed, and the types of integration services used.
2. Service Tiers: Oracle Integration Cloud may offer different service tiers with varying levels of features and capabilities. The pricing can differ between these tiers, with higher tiers providing more advanced functionalities and scalability.
3. User Licensing: Some components of Oracle Integration Cloud may involve user-based licensing, where you pay for the number of users or administrators who have access to the platform.
4. Data Volume: Pricing may be influenced by the volume of data processed, transferred, or stored within the platform. Be aware of data usage limits and associated costs.
5. Integration Complexity: The complexity of your integrations can impact pricing. More complex integrations with multiple touchpoints and transformation requirements may have different pricing considerations than simpler integrations.
6. Add-On Services: Oracle often offers additional services and features that can be added to your Integration Cloud subscription, such as monitoring and analytics tools. These add-ons may have their own pricing structures.
7. Contractual Agreements: Large organizations may negotiate customized pricing and licensing agreements with Oracle based on their specific needs and usage patterns.
8. Support and Maintenance: Consider the cost of support and maintenance services, which can vary based on the level of support you require.
9. Discounts: Oracle may offer discounts for long-term commitments, bulk usage, or specific promotions. Be sure to inquire about any available discounts.
10. Cloud Infrastructure Costs: Keep in mind that the underlying cloud infrastructure where Oracle Integration Cloud runs (e.g., Oracle Cloud Infrastructure) may also have associated costs, which can be separate from Integration Cloud pricing.
