Cost Profiles
Overview¶
Cost Profiles ensure accuracy of cost metrics by taking the organization's custom pricing and cluster type into consideration. Cost Profile is attached to clusters via Blueprints.
Custom Cost Profiles¶
The Profiles page shows the list of Custom (AWS, Azure, and Other) and Default profiles. Default system profiles are available for AWS and Azure. Organizations can customize certain profile parameters to ensure accuracy of cost metrics (e.g. for specific clusters or specific types of environment).
Create a Custom Cost Profile¶
Perform the below steps to create a custom cost profile:
- Login to the controller and select Profiles under Cost
- Click New Profile
- Provide a name for the profile and select a provider type (AWS, AZURE, and Other). Remember that if you intend to share this profile with other projects, the name needs to be unique
- Click Create and provide a version name
- Enter the required parameters based on the provider type
