OpsNow has been providing a service that detects cost anomalies based on user settings and AI, and notifies users with alerts. The “Cost Anomaly Alert List” and “Cost Anomaly Details” features have been launched to help users leverage the service more effectively.
The “Cost Anomaly Alert List” provides alerts and detection details of all anomaly expenses that occurred during the set period in a table format. It summarizes alerts by severity and type (based on user rules or AI), so you can check the frequency of unusual costs at a glance.
It also shows the top 5 common causes of alerts and the top 5 highest variable cost compared to the overall variable cost to help users respond quickly. The “Cost Anomaly Alert List” not only provides a function to check “Cost Anomaly Alert Details”, but users can also configure alert notifications, set their priority levels, and download the relevant details.
While the “Cost Anomaly Alert List” provides an overview of the overall situation, the “Cost Anomaly Alert Details” offers a more in-depth analysis of Cost Anomalies by date and service level.
It shows the difference between the predicted cost and the actual incurred cost for the date, and provides users with explanations behind the detection of cost anomaly with the help of an AI analysis model. In addition, it presents information on affected services in a table format.
Alerts can also be easily controlled by checking alert settings and providing links to control them. Additionally, we provide links for users who seek further questions regarding cost anomaly detection.
Manage cloud Anomaly expenses more easily and conveniently with the “Cost Anomaly Alert List” and “Cost Anomaly Alert Details”. The “Cost Anomaly Detection List” can be accessed through the OpsNow menu and the widget on the user dashboard while the “Cost Anomaly Alert Details” is accessible through the “Cost Anomaly Detection List” and the widget on the user dashboard.
What can I check on the “Cost Anomaly Alert List”?
The overall cost anomaly detection is identified as severe, important, and moderate. The top five items for each user rule and AI analysis detection can be checked at a glance. You can check the past and current detection records in detail by alert severity level, detection method, and vendor in the cost anomaly alert list.
Can I check the cost anomaly detection records that occurred in the past?
Yes, daily settings allow users to check cost anomaly detection records at desired time.
What are the criteria for the top 5 selection?
The “Top 5 Cumulative User Rule Alerts” lists five types of alerts ranked by the number of times they were triggered when costs exceeded the threshold set in the “User Rule Cost Anomaly Detection” widget. The alerts are categorized based on service, account, and region.
The “Top 5 AI Cumulative Fluctuation Rates” ranks five services with the highest cost variance, which is the difference between AI-predicted costs and actual costs. It measures the proportion of each service’s cost variance compared to the total cost variance across all services.
Can I disable cost anomaly alerts?
Yes, we plan to make an option to enable or disable alert notifications.
Can I check detailed information about detected cost anomalies?
Yes, depending on the detection method. User rule-based detections are automatically linked to the “Compare” function in Cost Analytics. So, users can identify rapidly fluctuating costs. On the other hand, AI-based detections provide a more in-depth analysis by displaying details of cost anomaly alerts along with specific service details that are affected.
