This listing uses a single contract dimension called Product Access (Units). You buy access to the dataset under one commitment term. Pricing does not split into tiers, instance sizes, or usage add-ons. You subscribe once to receive the historical popularity ranking data for names, which measures how popular entertainment professionals are based on audience interactions. The data updates daily and is delivered through AWS Data Exchange. Because there is only one dimension, your cost is set by the units of access you commit to, not by usage volume or separate feature levels.
Top-of-mind questions for buyers
What counts as one unit of Product Access for billing?
A unit grants your subscription access to the dataset itself. It is not counted by number of users, queries, or records retrieved. You commit to access units for the term, and that access covers the full historical popularity ranking data for names.
What data do I receive with this access, and how is it delivered?
You receive historical popularity rankings for entertainment professionals, called IMDb Meters. Rankings come from interactions of the IMDb audience. The data updates daily and is delivered through AWS Data Exchange.
Does my cost change if I query the data more often or pull more records?
No. This listing uses a single access-based dimension, not usage metering. Your cost is set by the units of access you commit to for the term. Querying the dataset more often or retrieving more records does not add charges.
