What it shows

Overview is the first tab in the app. It adds up every connected source into one total and shows where the money goes, how it compares with last month, and who owns it. Organisations with two or more sources land here after sign-in. Overview is available on every plan. Features inside it that need a higher plan, such as team ownership, keep their own requirements.

​
The total

The headline is your total spend for the selected period, compared with the same days last month. If you spend in more than one currency, the total is in your main currency and the other currencies are listed beside it, not converted. Below it, one card per source shows its amount, its share of the total and its change against last month:

​
Counted once

A Kubernetes node or a VM in a connected AWS account appears on the AWS bill and is also measured by the CostOptix agent. Overview counts it once, inside the cloud bill.
  • Linked clusters and machines sit inside the cloud total. Their cards say how much of the cloud bill they account for, and they are not added again.
  • Days the cloud bill has not arrived for yet are covered by the agent’s estimate, and replaced by the bill once it lands.
  • Everything else (bare metal, on-prem, other providers) is added on top.
To tell CostOptix where a cluster or machine is billed, set a billing link on the cluster or Billed through on the host. A cluster without a link is always counted on its own, with a reminder to link it if its nodes are in a connected account.
