It helps engineering and finance teams allocate costs, identify waste, and act on savings opportunities without performance trade-offs. The tool can be installed in under 5 minutes and supports multi-cloud and on-premises environments.
Kubecost installs into your Kubernetes cluster and continuously collects cost and usage data, allocating spend by team, workload, or product and surfacing optimization recommendations.
