Cost management is an OpenShift Container Platform service that enables you to better understand and track costs for clouds and containers. It is based on the upstream project Koku.
AWS Cost Explorer
Let’s check out the AWS Cost Explorer. As you can see below, the AWS Cost Explorer has a rich feature set. For example, you can compare a current bill to a projection of what the costs will be at the end of the month. The Cost Explorer can be helpful during proof of concept (POC ) processes to explore and extrapolate costs as you move into migratio.

AWS Trusted Advisor
The AWS Trusted Advisoris a tool that allows customer to gain insight into possible improvements within an account. These areas for review are displayed in pillars of cost, performance, security, reliability, and AWS service limits. Looking at the Trusted Advisor Dashboard above, Cost Optimizationshows that there might be ways to lower costs. Is th.

Cost Management
The OpenShift Cost Management Operator takes this a step further. Customers using OpenShift 4.4 and above can access the Cost Management Operatoron the Red Hat site. The Cost Management Operator provides a web console with visibility into all clusters across all environments. Hybrid customers can see visualizations, reports, and queries for cluster.

How does cost management work?
Cost Management allows us to visualize and allocate costs, and from that, we can start to influence behaviors - this allows us to start addressing the cost overrun problem we identified earlier. To set up Cost Management, the platform administrator will install the Cost Management operator on his cluster (s).

Metering
As of OpenShift version 4.4, customers running OpenShift on AWS have the ability to enable meteringwithin the application platform. Administrators can install and configure metering using the Metering Operatoreither from the OperatorHub within the OpenShift console or from CLI: The Metering Operator will deploy several pods: $ oc -n openshift-meter.

Overview
Agility, innovation, operational leanness, and cost reductions are some of the leading drivers for business modernization. These are not simply industry buzz words; customers I regularly speak with are exploring ways to enable teams to be more self sufficient, and exploring how developers can be enabled to provision and manage the services they nee.

What is cost management in Kubernetes?
Cost management for Kubernetes is the process of understanding and having visibility into associated costs. It’s also the process of being able to provide cost transparency and showback in order to compare spend against allocated budgets. Why is cost management important? .
Accident management is the centralized handling of a motorist’s claim following a road traffic collision or other damages or mishaps that happen to a vehicle while on or off road. It is a cost-effective intermediary service which assists drivers in getting back on the road quickly and in managing the claims process alone. Whilst it is significantly more cost-effective for the innocent motorist, the service costs significantly more as a result - a cost borne by the insurer of the 'at-fault' driver.

Company offering air-side aviation services at an airport
A fixed-base operator (FBO) is an organization granted the right by an airport to operate at the airport and provide aeronautical services such as fueling, hangaring, tie-down and parking, aircraft rental, aircraft maintenance, flight instruction, and similar services. In common practice, an FBO is the primary provider of support services to general aviation operators at a public-use airport and is on land leased from the airport, or, in rare cases, adjacent property as a through the fence operation. In many smaller airports serving general aviation in remote or modest communities, the town itself may provide fuel services and operate a basic FBO facility. Most FBOs doing business at airports of high to moderate traffic volume are non-governmental organizations, either privately or publicly held companies.
A virtual network operator (VNO) or mobile virtual network operator (MVNO) is a provider of management services and a reseller of network services from other telecommunications suppliers that does not own the telecommunication infrastructure. These network providers are categorized as virtual because they provide network services to customers without owning the underlying network. A VNO typically leases bandwidth at the wholesale rates from various telecom providers in order to provide solutions to their customers. The VNO concept is relatively new in the North American market when compared to the European and Asian markets. India's Department of Telecommunications opened up licensing to VNOs in 2016 and awarded the first VNO Unified License in May 2017. Fully virtual VNOs do not have any technical facilities or technical support provision, instead they rely upon the support delivered by the owners of the underlying infrastructure. The VNO concept has gained a lot of traction in the telecommunications industry as the cost of infrastructure is substantial.
