Cost Map for Cloud Spend Analysis

Cost map is a new feature that offers a visual and interactive representation of your cloud spend across regions and cloud providers. The Cost map page includes two tabs:

• Region - This tab allows you to visualize your spending geographically across cloud deployments.

• Network traffic - This tab allows you to analyze costs associated with data transfer and connectivity.

Additionally, the Cost Explorer view now includes a new breakdown option called Geography, allowing you to analyze expenses by region.

New Download Functionality

A new download option has been introduced to facilitate offline analysis, reporting, and integration with external tools. You can now download data from the following modules in FinOps for Cloud:

• Resources - Download your resource data as an Excel spreadsheet or JSON file. You can also download Charts as PNG files.

• Cost explorer - Download the data as a PDF.

• User management - Export your list of users as an Excel spreadsheet or JSON file.

New Filters in Resource View

New filtering options are added to the Resources page to help you narrow down and analyze cloud assets more effectively. You can now filter resources by:

• Multi-select fields - This allows you to select multiple values across key dimensions for more flexible filtering.

• First seen date - This allows you to identify newly discovered resources.

• Last seen date - This allows you to track resources that might have been removed or are inactive.

Improved Email Formatting

We have enhanced the formatting of monetary values in all email communications.
