Architecture Overview
Cost Optix is a SaaS platform hosted at costoptix.com. Your cloud provider credentials are stored securely, and cost data is fetched on a scheduled basis using a three-tier caching strategy (Redis → local database → live provider API) to keep your dashboard fast and up to date. For Kubernetes clusters, an optional lightweight agent can be deployed directly inside your cluster to collect real-time metrics without exposing your kubeconfig to external services.Cost Optix is available on four subscription tiers: Starter, Professional, Business, and Enterprise. Some features — including SSO — are available on Business and Enterprise tiers only. See Subscription Tiers for a full comparison.
