About

OpenCost is a vendor-neutral open source project for measuring and allocating cloud infrastructure and container costs in real time. It provides flexible cost allocation broken down by Kubernetes concepts to the container level, with integrations for AWS, Azure, GCP, and on-prem clusters. The project is maintained by a community of Kubernetes experts under The Linux Foundation.

Problem

Teams lack visibility into how Kubernetes and cloud infrastructure costs are allocated across workloads and teams.

For

DevOps engineers and platform teams managing Kubernetes infrastructure costs

How it works

OpenCost measures and allocates cloud and container costs in real time using dynamic asset pricing via cloud billing APIs, then exports data to tools like Prometheus.
