Amortization is a critical component of cloud cost allocation, so we have introduced two new measures to the Y-axis of our Kubernetes Cost History Report that enable you to easily view and allocate your effective costs.
AWS Kubernetes Cost History Report: Amortized Cost = Upfront cost normalized monthly
Amortized Cost Allocation by Requests
Amortized Cost Allocation by Usage
Azure Kubernetes Cost History Report: Effective Cost = Upfront cost normalized monthly + OnDemand cost
Effective Cost Allocation by Requests
Effective Cost Allocation by Usage
With the addition of these new measures, you can amortize Kubernetes costs just as you do with all other costs in your environment.
