AWS Cloud Billing

Configuration¶

Install Func¶

It is recommended to activate the Guance Integration - Extensions - DataFlux Func (Automata)

If you deploy Func yourself, refer to Self-deploying Func

Activate Script¶

Tips

1. Prepare a qualified AWS AK in advance (in the IAM console, create an inline policy for the user that allows Cost Explorer Service actions: tick GetCostAndUsageWithResources and GetDimensionValues).
2. Before the first collector run, open AWS Console → Amazon Cost Explorer → Cost Management → Preferences and enable “Hourly and Resource Level Data”, then wait 24 h for data to become available.
3. The collector must set account_name and account_id in extra_tags.
4. To ensure accuracy, bill data is always collected for T-1.

Activate Script in Automata¶

1. Log in to the Guance console
2. Click the 【Integration】 menu and select 【Cloud Account Management】
3. Click 【Add Cloud Account】, select 【AWS】, and fill in the required information on the interface. If you have already configured the cloud account information before, ignore this step

Activate Script Manually¶

Verification¶

1. In 「Manage / Automatic Trigger Configuration」, confirm whether the corresponding task has the corresponding automatic trigger configuration, and you can also check the corresponding task records and logs to see if there are any anomalies
2. In Guance, check if the corresponding billing information exists in 「Cloud Billing / Billing Analysis」
