From 726e88a71cc93135370772faaff992b549dfebb3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: micheleRP Date: Thu, 21 May 2026 14:52:41 -0600 Subject: [PATCH 1/3] DOC-2196: Document Redpanda SQL billing metric Add a Redpanda SQL billing metrics section to the Billing page. Redpanda SQL is metered in RPU hours using the same RPU definition as Redpanda Streaming, but the per-RPU price differs. Rename the cluster-tab section from "Usage-based billing metrics" to "Redpanda Streaming billing metrics" so each product's billing has a matching section heading. Update the in-page anchor accordingly.
