This connector uses Azure Functions to connect to the Cybersixgill API to pull Alerts into Microsoft Sentinel. This might result in additional costs for data ingestion and for storing data in Azure Blob Storage costs. Check the Azure Functions pricing page and Azure Blob Storage pricing page for details.
