3 - Configure AWS Cost Explorer

This tutorial will guide you through the configuration of the AWS Cost Explorer

The CloudSense Cluster Cost feature utilizes the AWS Cost Explorer APIs to calculate the costs of active clusters deployed within your CloudSense Organization.

The following tags need to be checked

aws:cloudformation:stack-name
eks:cluster-name
Name

Adding tags can be found in the AWS Billing Service under the Cost allocation tags page. Once activated, the tags take 24hrs to report any data. These tags will only be added to new clusters. The name tag is under User-defined cost allocation tags.

And the aws:cloudformation:stack-name and eks:cluster-name tags are under AWS generate cost allocation tags.
