    Cost monitoring for Kubernetes workloads and cloud costs

    Project mention: Show HN: Cloud Costs Monitoring in Docker | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-11-21

    OpenCost is an open source implementation for Kubernetes cost monitoring and now cloud cost monitoring for AWS, Azure, and GCP. The project makes all of this data accessible via an API and user interface. While discussing the idea of running OpenCost on platforms besides Kubernetes we realized that with this new Cloud Costs feature there are users who want API access to their cloud billing data without needing to run on Kubernetes. I opened the Issue OpenCost without Kubernetes #2268 and as luck would have it, we had our internal Hackathon last week.

    If you're not familiar with OpenCost, it's the open source CNCF project for monitoring Kubernetes and cloud spending. It's a Golang implementation of the OpenCost Specification for monitoring Kubernetes cloud costs. It has an optional web UI and you can also run it as a Prometheus metrics exporter. The code is all at https://github.com/opencost/opencost and you can learn more about the project at https://opencost.io

  • AutoSpotting

    Saves up to 90% of AWS EC2 costs by automating the use of spot instances on existing AutoScaling groups. Installs in minutes using CloudFormation or Terraform. Convenient to deploy at scale using StackSets. Uses tagging to avoid launch configuration changes. Automated spot termination handling. Reliable fallback to on-demand instances.

    Project mention: Farewell to the Era of Cheap EC2 Spot Instances | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-05-05

    There's a service that handles obtaining the cheapest spot instances to your specs by a former aws engineer https://github.com/LeanerCloud/AutoSpotting

    Effectively, it starts up cheap spot instances (based on specified criteria) across a variety of instance types to replace whatever regular instance in an autoscaling group comes online and then spins down the regular instance.

    EG: That m4a you wanted may be expensive... but nobody is using m4ad so it's 85% off and it meets the specified CPU/RAM requirements... auto spotting will spin it up instead.

    Having used it on and off over the years it is sometimes eyebrow raising to see 4xl boxes running cheaper than the xl box they replaced :)

  • InfluxDB

  • terratag

    Terratag is a CLI tool that enables users of Terraform to automatically create and maintain tags across their entire set of AWS, Azure, and GCP resources

    Project mention: Top Terraform Tools to Know in 2024 | dev.to | 2024-03-26

    ‍Terratag is a tool designed to assign tags or labels to a complete collection of Terraform or Terragrunt files. It enables applying tags or labels to resources within AWS, GCP, and Azure.
