Platform

Platform are used to count the consumption trends of different platforms as well as the consumption amounts and ratios of different cloud accounts, cloud subscriptions, resources, resource types, projects, regions, and billing models under the platform.

Entry: In the cloud management platform click on the top left corner navigation menu, and click “Cost/Analysis/Platform” menu project in the left menu bar that pops up to enter the platform menu project.

• Switch between platforms by toggling the top tab to see the consumption information under different platforms.
• Bill shared: When bill shared is enabled, the platform will spread the cost of the prepaid resource package to each day or month. The consumption amount on the cost overview page will change to the cost of pay per volume + the cost of prepaid package apportioned to each day or month. If you view the consumption trend of this month, the prepaid fee will be apportioned to each day, and if you view the data of this quarter or year, the prepaid fee will be apportioned to each month.
• When only one currency of bills exists in the platform, the drop-down list will not be displayed by default. When there are bills in multiple currencies at the same time, a drop-down list will appear in the upper right corner to switch the bills in the corresponding currencies, currently supporting RMB bills, USD bills and BRL bills.
  • When the “Multi-currency bill Combined” is enabled in the global configuration, all bills will be displayed in a certain currency through the exchange rate conversion instead of directly displaying the bills in a specific currency.
  • When the “Origin Bill” is enabled in the global configuration, in the domain view and project view, there will be a drop-down option to display the original bill in the corresponding currency.
• Time: Support to view cost trends and the percentage of consumption under different dimensions in this month, last month, this quarter, last quarter, this year or custom time.

• Cost Trends: View consumption amounts and consumption trends for the current month, last month, current year, or a custom time period in a bar graph format.

  Description

  Currently, only this month and this year cost trends support forecast cost data.

  • This month: When historical billing data exists for more than 30 days, you can forecast all forecasted charges for the rest of the month, and if historical billing data exists for less than 30 days, you can forecast forecasted charges for half of the time of the historical bills that have been issued.
  • This year: When there is more than one year of historical billing data, you can forecast all the forecasted charges for the rest of the current year, and if there is less than one year of historical billing data, you can forecast the forecasted charges for half of the time of the historical bills that have been issued.

• View the consumption amount and percentage of total consumption for different platforms, cloud accounts, cloud subscriptions, resources, resource types, domains (departments), projects, tags, regions, and billing modes for this month, last month, this quarter, last quarter, this year or custom time.

  • Resource Type: Displays the consumption amount and proportion of different resource types (servers and cloud drives) on the specified platform in the form of a list; displays the total consumption cost of the specified platform and the consumption amount and proportion of different resource types in the form of a ring chart.
  • Resources: - Resources: Display the calculated resources and consumption amount of consumption TOP N (default is TOP 10, support modifying to TOP 10, TOP 20, TOP 30, all) on the cloud platform in the form of bar chart and list, support filtering the calculated resources and consumption amount of consumption TOP N by resource type. The bar chart includes only resource name and consumption amount, and the list includes resource name, resource type, project and cost information. Support clicking the top right corner of icon to export the corresponding bill data.
  • Cloud accounts: Display the consumption amount of cloud accounts with TOP N consumption (default is TOP 10, support modifying to TOP 10, TOP 20, TOP 30, all) on the specified platform in the form of a bar chart and a list. Support clicking the top right corner of icon to export the corresponding bill data.
  • Cloud subscriptions: Display the consumption amount of cloud subscriptions that consume TOP N (default is TOP 10, support modifying to TOP 10, TOP 20, TOP 30, all) on the cloud management platform in the form of bar graph and list. Support clicking the top right corner of icon to export the corresponding bill data.
  • Region: Display the consumption amount and ratio of the specified platform under different regions in the form of a list; display the total consumption cost of the specified platform and the consumption amount and ratio under different regions in the form of a ring chart.
  • Billing mode: Display the amount and proportion of consumption on the specified platform under postpaid and prepaid type billing modes in the form of a list; display the total amount of consumption on the specified platform and the amount and proportion of consumption under different billing modes in the form of a ring chart.
  • Domain (department): Displays the consumption amount and proportion of different domains on the cloud account in the form of a list; displays the total consumption cost of the cloud account and the consumption amount and proportion of different domains in the form of a ring chart. It is not visible under the project view.
  • Project: Displays the project name and consumption amount of TOP N (default is TOP 10, support to modify to TOP 10, TOP 20, TOP 30, all) consumption on cloud management platform in the form of bar chart and list. In addition, it also supports filtering by domain, click the project, set the domain in the pop-up input box, and display the project name and consumption amount of TOP N consumption on the specified domain in the form of bar chart and list. Support clicking the top right corner of icon to export the corresponding bill data.
