What does a "processing unit" mean?

A processing unit (formerly named "request") stands for a tile of 512*512 px, which is a recommended option for integration in web application due to best performance/size ratio.
200.000 requests per month limit therefore means that you can retrieve 200.000 tiles of 512*512px per month from our service. If you ask for smaller tiles, e.g. 256*256px, the volume of requests is proportionally larger. Similarly, if you ask for large tiles (e.g. 2000*2000 px), it is smaller (smallest unit being 0.001).

What does generally not count:

Is there any difference in functionality between 30-days trial account and subscription account?

There is no difference in functionality or data between trial account and subscription account, apart of trial account being limited to 10.000 requests per day. As we would like to give all users the opportunity to test the Sentinel Hub services at its fullest, you can contact us if you need higher throughput in the trial phase.

The Sentinel Hub trial account is not allowed for commercial use.

What is the difference between the products of each license?

The difference between consumer / research and commercial plan is in the purpose of the usage of our services. If you are using the Sentinel Hub services for research purposes or for yourself, consumer / research option is the right one. If you are using it within your company, you should use commercial option.
