Metering

meshStack imports metering data from AWS Cost and Usage Reports

An AWS Cost and Usage Report should be created as specified in the documentation with the following properties

  • Daily time granularity
  • gzip compression
  • txt/csv file format
  • Should include resource ids
  • Versioning should be setup to overwrite existing report

The following parameters are required to configure meshStack to process the AWS Cost and Usage Reports

  • AWS credentials that can access the S3 bucket where the reports are written
  • The name of the S3 bucket where the report is written
  • The region of the S3 bucket
  • The name of the report
  • The "Report path prefix" configured when creating the report

When processing the AWS Cost and Usage Report to generate the Usage Report in the meshPanel,

  • Only the line items with line item type DiscountedUsage, Fee, Usage and SavingsPlanCoveredUsage are taken into the calculation. In other words, Credit, Refund, RIFee, Tax SavingsPlanUpfrontFee, SavingsPlanRecurringFee and SavingsPlanNegation are excluded.
  • Only the line items with bill type Anniversary are taken into the calculation. In other words, line items with bill type Purchase and Refund are excluded.
  • For each line item, we take the effective cost when available and unblended cost otherwise
