Which public-cloud consumption model uses a subscription-based payment method?
NetApp Keystone is NetApp's storage-as-a-service (STaaS) offering, documented as a pay-as-you-grow, subscription-based consumption model that lets organizations pay for storage as an operating expense rather than a capital purchase. BYOL is a licensing mechanism rather than a payment cadence, and marketplace or private-offer purchases through a hyperscaler marketplace are typically usage-based or negotiated commitments rather than a NetApp-managed subscription.
