Kubecost continues to play a pivotal leadership role in numerous cloud cost management initiatives throughout the industry. Kubecost is based on the OpenCost open source project that offers a unified cost monitoring solution and embraces emerging industry standards such as the FinOps Foundation’s Open Cost and Usage Specification (FOCUS).
FOCUS accelerates cloud adoption by providing a unified framework for presenting and understanding cloud cost data and simplifying processes such as allocation, chargeback, budgeting, and forecasting to maximize business value in the cloud. Kubecost just announced that it has added cloud cost support to OpenCost, making it the most adopted, fully open source, multi-cloud cost monitoring solution. This allows OpenCost to support accessing provider billing and cloud cost visibility beyond Kubernetes across AWS, Azure, and GCP — with more platforms to come.
